Following reports of heavy rainfall and flash floods in Arunachal Pradesh, the Government of Assam is on high alert and closely monitoring the evolving situation. District administrations and line departments have been directed to maintain maximum preparedness, while SDRF, NDRF and other response agencies remain ready for deployment. Citizens are advised to remain vigilant and follow official advisories.
Detailed press release attached.
Driven by the persistent efforts of Hon’ble Chief Minister Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma and with the continued support of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, the launch of Air India Express direct flights from Guwahati to Dubai and Abu Dhabi from August 2026 marks another major milestone in Assam’s expanding global connectivity.
Adding to existing international links to Singapore, Bangkok and Paro, these services further strengthen Assam’s position as the gateway to Northeast India and an emerging hub for trade, tourism, investment and people-to-people exchanges.
The Government of Assam will work closely with Air India, GIAL, Customs and Immigration authorities, and the Ministry of Civil Aviation to develop an “Easy Connect” ecosystem, enabling seamless access to 20+ destinations across the Middle East, Europe and North America through Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Through-check-in, baggage transfer and streamlined onward travel can significantly enhance passenger convenience and position Guwahati as a preferred international gateway for the Northeast.
Similar efforts can also be pursued with Drukair and other airline partners to leverage existing connectivity through Bangkok and Singapore, providing greater access to ASEAN destinations and advancing Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s Act East vision through enhanced regional and global integration.
