Assam CM Directs Ministers to Inform Local MLAs Before Constituency Visits
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has directed ministers to inform local MLAs in advance before visiting their constituencies, following a controversy over a minister's visit without MLA participation. The directive encourages inviting MLAs to public programs and official functions to enhance coordination and governance. Even when MLAs' presence is not required, they should be courteously informed to ensure smooth conduct of official engagements and strengthen collective involvement in development initiatives.
