Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has called for extensive beneficiary outreach to achieve complete saturation of the government's flagship schemes, which have been launched over time, according to an Assam CMO statement.

"I challenge Congress to muster the courage to tell the Muslim community in Assam that cow slaughter in the name of sacrifice is a heinous crime. They will never be able to say it. When it comes to the rights of Gaumata (Cow), the BJP does not care about any vote bank," Sarma posted on X.
