Assam poised to become India's new education hub, says CM Sarma

Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma told reporters that Assam is rapidly positioning itself as a new centre for education across the country. He highlighted the state's growing network of schools, colleges and universities as evidence of this shift.
The administration has been encouraging the establishment of higher‑learning institutions and skill‑development centres, aiming to attract students from other states and abroad.
Sarma said that these developments are expected to boost the state's economy and create new opportunities for youth, reinforcing Assam's role in India's broader educational landscape.
Officials plan to sustain this momentum through continued policy support and infrastructure investment, signalling a long‑term vision for Assam as an education hub.
