Fatasil Ambari, Guwahati

Residents of South-East Guwahati are frustrated with the decade-long delay and non-operational status of a water supply project initiated in 2013. A recent government study has identified areas along Guwahati's southern growth corridor, including GS Road, the Guwahati Bypass, and Fatasil Ambari Road, as the most heat-stressed zones due to rapid urban expansion.

Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw launched blended hospitality services, including sleeping pods and a modern lounge, at Guwahati Railway Station. He also flagged off the Sairang-Silchar passenger train. These initiatives aim to improve passenger comfort and boost regional connectivity, facilitating easier movement of goods and people, and strengthening trade links in the Northeast.
