Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal

Assam is now “ready for a big industrial push” and the state government is committed to facilitate major industrial players, from both within the country and abroad, Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal said on Tuesday.

“We want to convey to all potential investors that Assam is now ready for big industrial push. The state government is committed to facilitate major industrial players, from within the country and outside, in all possible ways for setting up their businesses here,” Sonowal, who was inaugurating a major manufacturing plant of Emami Ltd at Pacharia, about 20 km from here, said.

Sonowal also pointed out that the BJP-led government in the state would organise a Global Investment Meet in Guwahati in February, during which the government would showcase Assam’s potential to become the business hub of South East Asia.
