Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma inaugurated a
new CMO inside the secretariat complex in Guwahati on Friday.
Himanta Sarma’s new office, the Lok Sewa Bhawan, is
situated in the newly-constructed ‘I-Block’ inside the Janata Bhawan complex at
Guwahati’s Dispur.
The new block will accommodate the offices of the
chief minister and the chief secretary.
“Another block is being constructed and it will be
ready within the next six months. In 5-10 years, the entire secretariat complex
will feature a new look. This will be done keeping in mind the e-office
requirements,” said the CM.
Immediately after the inauguration, Sarma distributed
appointment letters to 62 assistant engineers (civil) under the Water Resources
Department.
“Starting from May 2021, a total of 87,720 job seekers
have been appointed in various departments. With today’s handing out of
appointment letters, the number now stand at 87,782,” he added.
