BJP moving forward towards a huge majority in Jharkhand: Himanta
With both the BJP and the JMM-led alliance engaged in a fierce contest, the campaign for the first phase of the Jharkhand assembly elections will conclude at 5 PM today.
Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Wednesday that Assam would emerge as a hub of semiconductors.
Sarma hailed the day as a historic milestone for Assam, as the state gears up to lead a semiconductor revolution, thanks to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s steadfast belief in the northeastern region.
In a significant boost to Assam’s industrial landscape, Prime Minister Narendra Modi virtually laid the cornerstone for the largest semiconductor unit in Morigaon.

Sarma emphasised that this venture is poised to attract an investment of Rs 27,000 crore and generate employment opportunities for 30,000 young individuals in Assam and its neighboring areas.
He appreciated PM Modi for his ‘Ashta Lakshmi’ initiative and Tata Sons, led by MD N Chandrasekaran for their bold endeavor to transcend geographical barriers. “This marks the commencement, not the culmination,” Sarma asserted, expressing his confidence in Assam’s economic advancement.
In a subsequent statement, he conveyed his aspirations of scripting history with the unwavering support of the people of Assam, remarking that the state is witnessing a moment of jubilation for the first time.
