Guwahati doesn’t even have a Sewerage ! Proper Sewerage System should be built as soon as poosible to save the City from a Disaster !
More sensitization is required for the ‘Smart City’ proposal in the Guwahati city. The higher educational institution should be engaged with debates and discussion on it. The IIT and the universities too should be engaged, along with the various ethnic social groups living in and around the present city. The most important aspect will be the land use practice along the southern side of Meghalaya hills. We are optimistic that all things will work in right direction with rapid development….

Before commenting crime and it will help to find out the intruders coming from Bangladesh. Its will help the police if they they think anyone is suspicious with nrc/prc/driving licence/voters id/ numbers one click away for a person history sheet.. And the facilities should have options to update a crime in no time.. So that wherever the person hides in the country it can be easy traceable and 0% chance to get rid off
