Guwahati: The Assam government has decided to celebrate 2025 as the “Year of Reading” to encourage reading habits among people, especially the youth. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma announced the decision after the state cabinet approved the initiative on Monday.
Speaking to the media, CM Sarma said, “The habit of reading is essential for personal growth and knowledge. To promote this, we will organize book fairs in all districts throughout the year.”
The Assam Book Fair will be held in Khanapara to bring people closer to books and foster a culture of reading. Additionally, government departments will set up libraries to motivate employees to read more.
