Union Home Minister Amit Shah said the government will appoint a senior official to work on issues for the Rabha, Mising, and Tiwa communities in Assam, after meeting their delegations alongside Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma. These groups want constitutional status for their autonomous councils, a demand Shah acknowledged, promising an interlocutor for a lasting solution.
Shah's upcoming trip also includes opening a huge new auditorium. He will inaugurate the Jyoti Bishnu Prekhyagriha, a five-thousand-seat venue named for cultural icons Jyotiprasad Agarwala and Bishnu Prasad Rabha. The state government pitched this as a major boost for the region's cultural infrastructure, built quickly to host large events and honor Assam's artistic legacy.
The Chief Minister expressed gratitude for the political move, calling the interlocutor plan a sign of commitment to inclusive governance and indigenous rights. The auditorium project is framed similarly, as a step to strengthen cultural spaces and provide a platform for local artists. Shah's visit highlights continued central government attention on Assam's development and integration.
