Assam government approves ₹50,000cr Viksit Assam plan to modernize state
Assam's government just approved a massive ₹50,000 crore development plan called Viksit Assam.
The focus is on upgrading infrastructure, powering up with green energy, like a new 30 MW solar plant and battery storage in Goalpara, and improving welfare across the state.
It's all about making Assam more modern and livable.

The Cabinet is also investing in university upgrades, building a road over bridge and bypass road to ease traffic, and setting aside land for new industrial estates in Kamrup (M) and Nagaon. Plus, there's a milk project in Dhemaji.
For those with NFSA ration cards, subsidized essentials like Masur Dal and sugar will keep flowing at affordable rates.
Healthcare is getting a boost too: Guwahati will soon have a ₹600 crore Proton Beam Therapy Centre for advanced cancer treatment.
And the state's investment policy now rewards Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facilities (RVSFs), so greener practices are encouraged all around.
