BJP has hailed the fulfillment of certain key pre-poll promises made by the party in the very first meeting of the state Cabinet.
Addressing a press conference today at the state BJP Headquarters, Atal Bihari Vajpayee Bhawan, in Guwahati, party spokesperson Dr. Suranjan Dutta stated that every political organisation, on the eve of an election, unveils a Vision Document embodying its solemn commitments for the welfare, prosperity, and holistic advancement of the people. In the 2026 Assam Legislative Assembly Election as well, BJP Assam Pradesh had presented before the people an extensive Sankalp Patra comprising 31 transformative and people-centric commitments dedicated to the larger interests of the citizens of Assam. Following the resounding electoral mandate, Himanta Biswa Sarma took oath for the second consecutive term as the Chief Minister of Assam on May 12. Thereafter, on May 13, the first Cabinet Meeting of the NDA alliance government was convened successfully with remarkable decisiveness and visionary intent. In this historic Cabinet Meeting, a resolute decision was adopted to implement, in letter and spirit, all the 31 commitments enshrined in the BJP’s Sankalp Patra over the forthcoming five years. Dr Dutta further recalled that during his previous tenure, Chief Minister Sarma had unequivocally declared on the floor of the Assam Legislative Assembly that, if entrusted once again with the responsibility of leading the state, he would move towards the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in Assam. Remaining steadfast to that solemn assurance, the Chief Minister, in the very first Cabinet Meeting of his second term, took a landmark decision for the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in the state. Besides this visionary initiative, the Cabinet Meeting also deliberated upon and adopted several far-reaching decisions pertaining to governance, infrastructure development, employment generation, transportation reforms, and comprehensive administrative restructuring aimed at accelerating Assam’s march towards progress and prosperity. Furthermore, with the objective of expediting the recruitment process for an additional two lakh government jobs in the state, the Cabinet resolved to constitute a Special Task Force under the leadership of the Chief Secretary. The State Committee of the Bharatiya Janata Party, Assam Pradesh, extends its profound appreciation, heartfelt congratulations, and sincere gratitude to the dynamic architect of modern Assam and visionary Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, for upholding the sanctity of public commitments with exemplary dedication by initiating decisive action on the promises made in the electoral Sankalp Patra in the very first Cabinet Meeting itself.
