Sarma said that Assam is always proud of the culture and heritage of Tezpur. The land which is the birth place of the doyens like Jyoti Prasad Agarwala, Bishnu Prasad Rabha, Phani Sarma, always feels the requirement for a state of the art auditorium. However, with laying the foundation of an auditorium with 1000 seat capacity to be built on a land measuring 10 bigha land involving a financial outlay of Rs. 27 crores, the need for the same will be met greatly. He said that with these schemes, the importance of Tezpur will be improved to a great extent.

The Chief Minister said that as a gesture of gratitude of all those who participated in the mega Bihu event, State government announced that all the participants will be given certificate and honorarium. Therefore, he felt happy to present the certificates and cash awards to all those who participated in the mega Bihu event.

Sarma said that Assam has 28 thousand villages and from November to April in all the villages, cultural fest will be organised. In each village during the cultural fest arrangements will be made to hold Jyoti Sangeet, Bhupendra Sangeet, Bishnu Sangeet, Rabindra Sangeet and any of the ethnic dances of the state. The winners of the village will take part in constituency level and then in district level and ultimately in the state level cultural fest will be organised in Guwahati.

Sarma said that as a part of the Cabinet decisions held in Tezpur, a step has been taken for the beautification of Borpukhuri involving a financial outlay of Rs. 14.85.
