The meeting began with additional commissioner Manas Saikia explaining the purpose of the gathering and welcoming all attendees. District superintendent of police Prakash Sonowal then provided a detailed overview of the necessary precautions to ensure safety at the ghats during the puja. Attendees were also requested to inform the police immediately if any suspicious objects or individuals were noticed.

District commissioner Parag Kumar Kakati suggested that instead of holding separate puja events at multiple locations in Mangaldai, Kharupetia, Panbari, and Dalgaon, the festival would be more impactful if celebrated collectively at a single location in each town. He urged the Puja committees to consider this idea for future celebrations. Additionally, he instructed all Puja committees to arrange adequate lighting at the puja ghats and adhere strictly to other safety norms.

The district commissioner concluded by wishing everyone a happy Chhath Puja.
