He further said that the scale of victory reflects the deep trust reposed by the people in the double-engine government and its consistent focus on inclusive growth, infrastructure development and welfare delivery, and the mandate will further accelerate the state’s development.
“The people of Assam have once again chosen stability, progress and decisive governance. This mandate is not just a victory -- it is a responsibility to serve with greater commitment and dedication,” Sonowal remarked. Highlighting the importance of collective effort, Sonowal emphasised that the NDA government will continue to work towards strengthening peace, prosperity and opportunity across the state, with a continued focus on economic growth, youth empowerment, infrastructure expansion and social harmony.
