Assam cabinet approves major developmental initiatives

Assam's Cabinet has approved initiatives across tourism, energy, and infrastructure, including stadium upgrades and new concert tourism policy.

The Assam Cabinet on Wednesday approved policies for concert tourism and solar power generation, and the upgradation of Khanikar Stadium in Dibrugarh into the largest such facility in the state.
It also gave its nod to provide personal security to individuals with credible threat perceptions against payment of remuneration to the government.
Addressing a press conference at Dergaon in Golaghat district after chairing the Cabinet meet, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said, &ldquo;Individuals, facing credible threats, can now apply for personal security, subject to the condition that they must pay a remuneration to the government. This facility will be granted only after a due assessment of the threat perception.&rdquo; He said the Cabinet has approved a new policy for the Concert Economy.
&ldquo;Our state was losing out on the Concert Economy to other states, including our neighbour Meghalaya. This policy aims to position Assam as a premier music and entertainment tourism hub to host large-scale concerts and music festivals,&rdquo; Sarma said.
Guwahati, Dibrugarh and Jorhat will be developed as concert tourism hubs under this policy, he said, adding that the first such programme will be organised in December in Guwahati.
The Cabinet has okayed &lsquo;Assam Solar Power Generation Promotion Policy 2025&rsquo;, which aims to generate 3,500 MW capacity by 2030 and attract public and private investments to create 15,000 jobs, the chief minister said.
A proposal for notification to include over 47,000 hectares of land under the 6th addition to Kaziranga National Park has also been green-lighted, Sarma said.
Some of the areas, included originally under the 6th addition, have been kept out, though inclusion of new places has ensured that the total area of the sanctuary has increased, he added.
The chief minister said that Rs 209 crore has been approved to upgrade Khanikar Stadium in Dibrugarh from a 5,000 to a 35,000-seat capacity, which will make it the largest stadium in the state.
The council of ministers also gave its nod to a proposal of spending Rs 284 crore for the construction of an Assam Assembly building in Dibrugarh, including an MLA hostel and an auditorium with a 1000-seat capacity, he added.
Sarma said that the Cabinet has sanctioned over Rs 205 crore as the last and final share of investment of the Government of Assam&rsquo;s committed contribution to the expansion of the Numaligarh Refinery Ltd.
&ldquo;With this, the government of Assam will complete the investment of Rs 823 crore for NRL&rsquo;s expansion as committed earlier,&rdquo; he added.
Sarma said administrative approval has also been given for the Phase 2 construction and development of residential quarters and associated facilities at the Lachit Barphukan Police Academy, Dergaon, at a cost of Rs 229.41 crore, which is expected to be completed in two years.

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs, led by PM Narendra Modi, has approved an MSP of ₹5,650 for raw jute for 2025-26, ensuring a 66.8% profit margin for farmers.

Cabinet sets ₹5,650 MSP for raw jute for 2025-26 season

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs, led by PM Narendra Modi, has approved an MSP of ₹5,650 for raw jute for 2025-26, ensuring a 66.8% profit margin for farmers.

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA), led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has approved an increase in the Minimum Support Price (MSP) for raw jute for the 2025-26 marketing season.
The MSP for TD-3 grade raw jute is set at ₹5,650 per quintal, reflecting a 6% rise from the previous season&rsquo;s rate, Union Minister Piyush Goyal stated.

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>Enhanced Support for Jute Farmers</h3>
The revised MSP guarantees a return of 66.8% over the all-India weighted average production cost. This decision is poised to benefit approximately 1.7 lakh jute farmers and indirectly impact around 40 lakh families associated with jute farming.
The increase is part of the government&rsquo;s commitment to provide at least 1.5 times the production cost as MSP, a policy announced in the 2018-19 Budget.
<h3>Significant Growth Over the Years</h3>
The MSP for raw jute has seen a substantial rise over the years, increasing from ₹2,400 per quintal in 2014-15 to ₹5,650 per quintal in 2025-26, marking a 2.35-fold growth. During the period 2014-15 to 2024-25, jute farmers received ₹1,300 crore in MSP payments, compared to ₹441 crore disbursed between 2004-05 and 2013-14.
<h3>Regional Impact and Employment</h3>
Jute farming is heavily concentrated in West Bengal, which accounts for 82% of production, while Assam and Bihar contribute 9% each. The jute industry provides direct employment to about 4 lakh workers and sustains the livelihoods of 40 lakh families.
<h3>Role of the Jute Corporation of India (JCI)</h3>
The Jute Corporation of India will continue as the Central Government&rsquo;s nodal agency for Price Support Operations. Any losses incurred during these operations will be fully reimbursed by the Central Government to ensure stability in the jute market.
This decision highlights the government&rsquo;s focus on enhancing income stability for jute farmers, boosting the financial sustainability of the industry, and supporting the rural economy through targeted interventions.

When Prime Minister Narendra Modi was in Lucknow recently, he gave the example of one of America's founding fathers Benjamin Franklin to UP ministers. PM Modi was advising UP ministers on the importance of time management, and also pointed out that 'karya' or work should come before 'karyakram', or events, according to an Indian Express report.
While telling the lawmakers about time management, PM Modi suggested that they read about Benjamin Franklin. Franklin, whose face adorns the US $100 note, was an author, inventor, philosopher, diplomat, and a journalist and publisher. One of the most famous aspects of his life is his strict daily routine which he mentioned in his autobiography.
Here is what it was.
5 to 7 AM: Rise, wash, and address Powerful Goodness! Contrive day&rsquo;s business, and take the resolution of the day: prosecute the present study, and breakfast. Ask the morning question - what good shall I do this day?
8 to 11 AM: Work.
12 to1 PM: Read, or overlook my accounts, and dine.

Nearly 16 months after a factional rebellion led by Sachin Pilot, the Ashok Gehlot-led Rajasthan government is set to see a cabinet shuffle. 
In total, 15 ministers will take oath Sunday: 12 new and three Ministers of State who are being elevated to Cabinet rank.

Besides accommodating some Pilot loyalists as part of the peace formula, the reshuffle clearly is with an eye on Assembly elections just two years away.
There is also an attempt to send a message to the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe communities as well.

Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Saturday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi made the announcement to repeal the farm laws without holding a Cabinet meeting and alleged that it is only under the BJP that laws are made and unmade without prior Cabinet approval.
The Congress leader's attack came a day after Modi in an address to the nation announced the repeal of the three agri laws that had triggered a year of protests by farmers.
"Home Minister hailed the PM's announcement as showing 'remarkable statesmanship'. BJP President said that PM has 'immense care for farmers'. Defence Minister said that PM had taken the decision considering the 'welfare of the farmers'. Where were these worthy leaders and their wise advice in the last 15 months?" Chidambaram said on Twitter.
“Did you notice that the PM made the announcement without holding a Cabinet meeting,” the former Union minister asked.
"It is only under the BJP that laws are made and unmade without prior Cabinet approval," he went on to allege.
Hundreds of farmers had been protesting and were encamped at Delhi's borders since last November with a demand for repeal of the Farmers' Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, 2020, Farmers' (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Act, 2020 and the Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act, 2020, and forging of a new law that guarantees MSP for crops.
The Centre, which has held 11 rounds of formal dialogue with the farmers, had maintained that the new laws are pro-farmer, while protesters claimed the legislations would leave them at the mercy of corporates.

Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar on Thursday moved&nbsp; the three bills&nbsp;in Lok Sabha. The Opposition&nbsp;has said the ordinances were Centre&rsquo;s attempt to destroy agriculture.
