PWD minister Himanata Biswa Sarma took to twitter to announce the development works in the project.
“Good morning, nothing better to end this series. Glad to share this sight of the ongoing work on an alternative road to Maa Kamakhya Temple at #Guwahati under North Guwahati State Road Division. This was much-needed. Thank you all very much,” tweeted Sarma.
Assam government initiated the construction work keeping in mind the excessive crowd during Ambubachi Mela.
