In a post on X, CM Himanta Biswa Sarma stated, "In today's meeting of the Assam cabinet, we resolved to the Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) Policy 2025. High-Powered Investment Committee for ₹10,000 crore projects. Strengthening Assam's education framework. Tabling of the Mehta Commission Report at ALA. Decriminalising of minor offences."
