On One-Day Assam Tour, Shah Opens Batadrava Than, Guwahati Police Command Hub and 5,000-Seat Auditorium, Pledges Drive Against 'Infiltrators'

The compressed trip turned newly opened cultural sites plus policing systems into election messaging focused on immigration before state polls.

Overview

  • Dense fog pushed the planned Sunday arrival to Monday, compressing the programme into a single day across Nagaon and Guwahati.
  • At Bordowa, he inaugurated the redeveloped Batadrava Than, a project of roughly Rs 227 crore on 162 bighas cleared of encroachment, and addressed a public gathering.
  • In Guwahati, he opened the new Police Commissionerate building (about Rs 111 crore) and an Integrated Command and Control System that links more than 2,000 CCTV cameras.
  • He dedicated the Jyoti–Bishnu cultural complex, a 5,000‑seat auditorium costing about Rs 291 crore that state officials describe as the largest in eastern India.
  • In speeches, Shah vowed to identify and deport “infiltrators” across India, cited eviction drives freeing about 1.29 lakh bighas of land, and asked voters for five more years for the BJP.
