#ASSAMCABINET UPDATE - IMPORTANT THREAD
The new Cabinet held its first meeting today (May 11, 2021) & resolved to fulfill the promises made to our people.
We have taken our first steps in this journey with the following decisions 👇
1. To contain #Covid cases, more restrictions & containment measures would be put in place from May 13, 2021. Detailed SOP will be issued on Wednesday. In case restrictions have to continue for more than a fortnight, Govt will consider financial relief package for weaker sections
2. As promised during elections, the Cabinet decided to give employment to 1 lakh educated unemployed youths of the state in posts considered essential to improve public service delivery. A Committee is being constituted under Finance Minister to work out the modalities.
3. To ease the burden of loans availed by our mothers and sisters from Micro Finance Institutions, a Committee has been constituted to examine various aspects and make recommendations within one month.
