Guwahati: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma today visited the abandoned sugar mill factory in Barua Bamun Gaon village of Golaghat’s Dergaon as part of a day-long schedule.
During his visit, he announced plans to construct concrete embankments around the abandoned land, paving the way for industrial development.
The Chief Minister stated that arrangements for setting up industries will be made after the embankments are constructed. This move is expected to boost the local economy and create new opportunities for the residents of Dergaon.
