In a major boost to Guwahati’s security, Union Home Minister Amit Shah will inaugurate on December 29 Guwahati’s new Police Commissionerate building and an Integrated Command and Control Centre which will monitor over 2,000 CCTVs to bolster security and emergency response systems in the State.
Shah is also scheduled to visit Batadrava Than, the birthplace of Vaishnav saint Srimanta Sankardeva, in Nagaon district, where he will inaugurate the redevelopment project of the spiritual site on Monday.
The chief minister had earlier said that the state government has taken all efforts to restore the sanctity and grandeur of the place.
“Batadrava Than, freed from encroachments, is now a shining example of what steely resolve can do for the protection of our heritage,” the Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma had said.
Shah will on the same day also inaugurate the Jyoti Bishnu Cultural Complex, an auditorium with a 5,000 seating-capacity in Guwahati. (EOM)
