He stated that all the scandals occurring in Assam under the guise of trading will be handed over to the CBI for investigation, with the goal of completely eradicating these crimes.

In addition to the trading scandal, several other decisions were made in today’s cabinet meeting. The Assam government will take special measures to increase the number of beneficiaries under the Arunodoi scheme across the state. Meetings will be held in Assam’s 126 constituencies starting from September 19. Through these meetings, the Assam government aims to increase the number of beneficiaries by 10,000 in each constituency. A decision to increase the total number of Arunodoi beneficiaries by 12,60,000 across the state was also made in today’s cabinet meeting.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
