In a review meeting held on Tuesday evening at the Chief Minister’s office, discussions were also held regarding the practice of forging of land sale deeds and mutations that was recently uncovered in the Kamrup Metropolitan district.

The Chief Minister asked the District Commissioners to keep a close watch on the happenings and activities in their offices, especially that of Sub-Registrar and Deputy-Registrar offices under their jurisdiction.

Sarma also asked the District Commissioners to expedite the process of ration card preparation for the additional 40 lakh beneficiaries that have been added under the National Food Security Act in the State.
