The Assam government has created a Chief Minister’s Green Task Force comprising 82 fellows who have completed specialised training, aimed at strengthening the state’s environmental agenda.
Assam’s administration announced the formation of a new Chief Minister’s Green Task Force, bringing together 82 individuals who have recently finished a dedicated training programme on environmental management. The task force will operate under the Chief Minister’s office and is expected to provide technical inputs for the state’s climate‑action plans, afforestation drives and waste‑management initiatives.
The selection of the fellows followed a competitive process that emphasized expertise in sustainable practices and community‑based conservation. By consolidating this pool of trained professionals, the government aims to accelerate the implementation of green policies across districts.
State officials indicated that the task force will monitor progress of existing schemes, suggest improvements, and coordinate with local bodies to ensure that environmental targets are met in line with national commitments.
