Referring to the upcoming Jana Ashirwad Yatra of the BJP in Assam, Sarma said the outreach programme is not merely aimed at highlighting the achievements of the state government, but also at connecting directly with people across the state.
“The Jana Ashirwad Yatra of BJP Assam is not just about sharing the achievements of our government, but also about seeking the blessings of the people,” he said.
He added that the yatra provides an opportunity for party leaders to listen to the aspirations and concerns of citizens at the grassroots level, helping shape policies and programmes in line with public expectations.
Sarma said the BJP government’s initiatives in areas such as infrastructure development, education, healthcare, employment generation and social welfare have laid a strong foundation for Assam’s growth.
