From one statesman to another!
A proud moment for Assam today as a grand statue of our first Chief Minister Lokapriya Gopinath Bardoloi is unveiled by Adarniya @narendramodi ji on the premises of Guwahati Airport.
Shraddheya Bardoloi dangoriya was the architect of modern Assam and played a key role in saving Assam from merging with East Pakistan as part of Grouping.
We exist today as proud Bharatiyas due to his unflinching efforts and we owe a lot to his leadership in giving rise to an aspirational Assam.
This statue, crafted by the legendary sculptor, Late Ram Sutar ji is a befitting tribute to the great leader and its placement right at the entry point to the gateway of South East Asia makes it even more special.
A moment of pride and honour as a grand statue of Assam's first Chief Minister & our ideal Lokapriya Gopinath Bardoloi will be unveiled on the premises of the Integrated Terminal, LGBI Airport by Adarniya Shri @narendramodi ji on 20th December.
A befitting tribute to the legend.

The government in one of the South Asian countries requested bids to build a cement factory near its capital city. One of the firm (Bidder A) made a proposal that included choosing the factory site, designing the factory, hiring the construction team,
The bidder B viewed the problem not just as building a cement factory ( the narrow view of system selling) but as contributing to the economic development of the client. Bidder B took the broadest view of the customer's view. This was true systems selling!
