We all need mirrors to remind ourselves who we are.

Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee refused to let that happen.

Alongside Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi & others, he led the political and intellectual fight to keep Assam as an integral part of India. He understood the nefarious intentions of the Muslim League and its implication on Assam.

[Himanta Biswa Sarma @himantabiswa]

In 1947, when Partition was no longer a question of “if”- only of “where the lines would fall", the Muslim League had a plan of taking entire Bengal including Calcutta and entire North East into East Pakistan.

Had they succeeded, there would be no Assam in India today.

His contributions to Assam went beyond geography.

During Dr. Mookerjee’s tenure as VC, he advocated for Assamese as a medium for school education in Assam, with Dr. Birinchi Kumar Baruah playing a key role in strengthening Assamese language studies and higher education.

Everyone in Assam, especially the next gen, should know that the very fact of being able to call themselves Indian today, to be able to study in their language, practice their faith and be in their motherland, is owed to stalwarts such as S.P Mookerjee and Gopinath Bordoloi.

Today, when commuters drive over the flyover in Guwahati, they will be more than just crossing a bridge, they will be travelling over a piece of history that Dr. SP Mookerjee, more than most, helped preserve for us.

This is not just a flyover. It is a long overdue Thank You.

This evening, I will inaugurate a new flyover in Guwahati named after Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee.

Some will ask why a flyover in Guwahati is being named after Dr. S.P Mookerjee?

The answer is a story that very few people know but one which everyone in Assam should know 🧵

[Himanta Biswa Sarma @himantabiswa]

The Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee Setu is now open.

This flyover will reduce the travel time from Pragjyotishpur Medical College to NH 27 drastically and decongest one of Guwahati's densely populated areas.

We have completed this ₹376cr flyover 4 months ahead of schedule.

Concluding a very productive visit to Italy. My discussions with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni covered a wide range of sectors. A key outcome of the visit was our decision to elevate India-Italy ties to a Special Strategic Partnership, which will add new momentum to our cooperation in the years to come.

I thank Prime Minister Meloni, the Government of Italy and the wonderful people of Italy for their friendship.

Times may change, but the attitude of the de facto supremo of the Congress party, Mr. Rahul Gandhi, regrettably appears unchanged.

In an act that was deeply insensitive and insulting to the people of the entire North East, Mr. Gandhi chose not to wear the traditional Patka, a symbol of the region’s rich cultural heritage, at the reception hosted by the Hon’ble President of India this evening.

From the President and the Prime Minister to foreign dignitaries, everyone wore the Patka with respect and pride. Mr. Gandhi alone stood apart, reinforcing a perception of disregard towards the North East.

Such conduct explains why his party has lost the trust of the region and much of the country. Yet, this repeated insensitivity continues.

Mr. Rahul Gandhi must issue an unconditional apology to the people of the North East for this affront.

The people of the region deserve respect.

Today, I paid tributes to the martyrs of Patharughat where in 1894, the farmers of Assam led a popular revolt against colonial forces and set an example for the nation.

Bihu Samrat Khagen Mahanta’s invaluable contribution to Assamese folk music enriched our cultural landscape and inspired generations.

His legacy as the beloved ‘Ganasilpi’ will forever be cherished. Tribute to the legendary artist on his Punyatithi.

Back from Darrang and after chairing key meetings, I met with people late last evening in my office.

This constant interaction with the public helps us to identify gaps in our last mile delivery and fill them promptly.

Team Assam is available 24 × 7 to serve the people.
