Taking to social media platform X, CM Sarma wrote, "I had the privilege of calling upon Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar Ji at Uprashtrapati Niwas. Engaging with him is always an enriching experience."

The Chief Minister also met the Chairman of Tata Sons and Tata Group, Natarajan Chandrasekaran at the latter's Prithviraj Road residence here on Friday.

During an hour-long meeting, discussions were held on the upcoming investments by the Tata Group in Assam, including the semiconductor plant at Jagiroad.

Our conversation about the group's exciting investments in Assam was inspiring, and I'm eagerly looking forward to welcoming him at the #AdvantageAssam2 Summit!"

Notably, to give a boost to businesses in the state, a big investor summit -- 'Advantage Assam' is set to be hosted in Guwahati in late February.

The Chief Minister added that more government jobs and entrepreneurship support will be provided to the people of the state.
