Assam CM Appeals To Avoid Gutkha Consumption to Prevent Cancer & Maintain Cleanliness

While addressing the note on 75 years of Independence, the state chief minister further added that these minimalist approaches would give greater strength to the society as a whole.

On the occasion of 75th Independence Day, CM Himanta Biswa Sarma added through his Twitter handle, "made 10 appeals to the citizens of Assam like planting saplings, avoiding single-use plastic, taking care of elderly parents and putting extra time at work by Govt officials, among others."

It may be mentioned that a major accomplishment was earned by the duty-pledged officers of Assam on a National platform. With unimaginable laurels and pride up the collars of the state, this year when the nation steps up to the 75th year of her freedom, the Independence day celebrations commemoratively honored the daring feat and the zest and zeal of 3 personnel dedicatedly belonging to the Assam Fire Brigade. The three personnel from the Assam Fire Brigade were awarded the most-honourous President's Fire Service Medal.

The Sons of the Soil who brought this glory for the state and that of the people of Assam are Kumud Chandra Gogoi, Tapan Kumar Das, and Jatin Chandra Saud.

Interestingly, this year during the 75th Independence Day, President's Fire Service Medal for Distinguished Service has been awarded to 10 personnel and Fire Service Medal for Meritorious Service is awarded to 50 personnel for their respective distinguished and meritorious records of services. Out of them, Assam played a major role.
