Cute but evidently a staged video. And honking was not the only violation. Nobody wore helmet, including the children.

[Mrinal Talukdar @mrinaltalukdar8]

Assam has entered a new demographic era. NFHS-6 shows the state's fertility rate has fallen to 1.6 children per woman—well below the replacement level of 2.1 and lower than India's average of 2.0. Urban Assam (1.2) is now at levels seen in Singapore and Eastern Europe.

Indian groups going abroad for vacations should undergo a week-long civic sense course before being allowed to travel.

Nearly every tourist-friendly destination has developed hostility towards all Indians because of the uncouth and loutish behaviour of many of them.

[Kaushik Deka @KDscribe]

Many congratulations. It's really a commendable achievement. Next goal should be IMR which is still behind the national average.

[Himanta Biswa Sarma @himantabiswa]

There are some moments in public life which touch you very deeply. Today is one such moment for me.

Assam’s Maternal Mortality Rate has come down to 84. For the first time in our history, Assam is now below the national average of 88.

When I took over the Health Department in 2006, our MMR was 480. At that time, this journey looked almost impossible. But thousands of doctors, nurses, ASHA workers, health officials and frontline workers across Assam kept working silently, tirelessly and with compassion year after year.

This achievement belongs to them.

Behind this number are countless mothers who returned safely home to their families. Behind this success are years of sacrifice, sleepless nights and an unwavering commitment to save lives.

Assam has achieved something truly historic today. What once seemed impossible has become reality through collective effort and the blessings of the people of Assam.

I bow with gratitude to every health worker who made this possible.

Why CJI Surya Kant’s cockroach comment is correct

A Chief Justice calls unemployable youth “cockroaches.” A Norwegian reporter grandstands at Modi. But beneath the outrage lies a darker truth: India’s news ecosystem is collapsing into performance, opinion and unaccountable noise. In the age of viral influencers and free content, the line between journalist and parasite is disappearing, and so is the truth.

Assam shines at the global diplomatic arena.

During his visit to Italy, Adarniya @narendramodi ji gifted an Eri Silk stole to Hon'ble Prime Minister of Italy, H.E Girogia Meloni.

The Eri silk, also known as peace silk, unique to Assam, is obtained in cruelty free manner and represents the State's finest weaving traditions.

Hon'ble Prime Minister also gifted a sample of Joha rice to Dr. Qu Dongyu, the DG of @FAO, which is a small grain scented rice variety unique to Assam and has a rich aroma.

These gifts not only reflect Adarniya Pradhan Mantri Ji's love towards Assam and taking its heritage forward but also the rising influence of Assam in the world stage.

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma is increasingly being seen as one of the BJP’s most prominent national faces after Narendra Modi and Amit Shah. Despite coming from a smaller state with just 14 Lok Sabha seats, Himanta’s aggressive political style and strong presence in national discourse have drawn comparisons with leaders like Devendra Fadnavis and Yogi Adityanath. Known for his outspoken remarks and hardline image, Himanta says people appreciate leaders who are bold and direct.
