He also paid tributes at the portraits of former Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi and noted political leader Giridhar Thengal. Speaking at the public meeting held at Dhali High School playground at Titabor, Chief Minister Sonowal said that Titabor has historical significance and inhabitants here must strive to sustain that legacy. He also appreciated the role played by Thengal Autonomous Council in preserving the traditions, culture and heritage of the Thengal Kacharis and development of the area as an agricultural hub. Stressing on the importance of obtaining education by the younger generation to achieve rapid development of Thengal Kacharis in the age of science and technology, Sonowal cited the example of former IAS officer Ashok Saikia who, hailing from Titabor, shone at national level bureaucracy and urged the youths of the area to aspire for such excellence. He also hoped that the Thengal Cultural Centre and Museum would prove to be an important landmark for the entire State. Reiterating that the Assamese identity is safe and secure during the time of the present State Government, Sonowal said that works, which were ignored by the previous governments, have been completed now and the present state government has provided land pattas to indigenous landless people to sustain the local people’s rights over the State.

  • Tilte: Need to Start Construction of Dhubri-Phulbari Bridge Over River Brahmaputra
    an> Tilte: Need to start construction of Dhubri-Phulbari Bridge over river Brahmaputra. SHRI BADRUDDIN AJMAL (DHUBRI): I would like to draw the attention of the Government towards a long pending public demand for construction of Dhubri-Phulbari Bridge over river Brahamputra which will connect Assam and Meghalaya with the rest of the nation. Presently, people have to travel long distance by road or through water way between Dhubri and Phulbari putting their lives at risk. Several incidents have taken place in which many people have lost their lives. The project was already included under Special Accelerated Road Development Programme for North East (SARDP-NE) but unfortunately this has been kept pending since several years. Due to importance of this bridge, I have been pursuing this matter for the last six years. I have written several letters as well as I have met concerned ministers and officers on the issue but no development has taken place so far. In February 2013, the then Union Minister of Road & Transport and Highways announced that his ministry had decided to start the construction of a bridge over Brahmaputra to link Dhubri on the north bank and Phulbari on the south bank which will be a part of Rs 1763.27 crore project. However, the project is yet to be started. I humbly request the Hon'ble Minister of Road Transport & Highways with consultation to the Hon'ble Finance Minister to take necessary action to start construction of Dhubri-Phulbari Bridge at the earliest for the larger interest of people. .

Telegraph Mamata Banerjee to Centre: Send NHRC to Tripura Her reaction came on a day a Trinamul joining event in Badharghat was attacked by suspected ruling BJP members, leaving three TMC workers injured Chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Saturday dared the BJP-led Centre to send the National Human Rights Commission to Tripura over attacks on her party supporters “every day”. Her reaction came on a day a Trinamul joining event in Badharghat, 6km from Agartala, was attacked by suspected ruling BJP members, leaving three Trinamul workers injured. Three Trinamul student activists also received minor injuries at a college in Unakoti, some 150km from Agartala, when they were celebrating the foundation day of the Trinamul Chhatra Parishad. Will you send teams of National Human Rights Commission only to Bengal? Why were such teams not sent to Tripura...? Our people are attacked by goons there every day,” she said. Tripura BJP spokesperson Nabendu Bhattacharyya dismissed the allegations. Mamata alleged in her virtual address from Calcutta that even cops posted for the security of Trinamul leaders had not been spared. “They received injuries and were not allowed medicines or injection,” she said. She also predicted “khela hobe (her successful Bengal poll cry) in Tripura. She reminded BJP leaders that they did not allow her MPs to visit Assam during the NRC protest there. Her nephew and Trinamul all-India general secretary Abhishek Banerjee warned the BJP that Trinamul would come to power in Tripura in 2023. “Trinamul will form the government in Tripura under the leadership of Mamata Banerjee.
