Assam CM states that Special Intensive Revision won’t start until the NRC is notified.

“Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma stated that the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Assam cannot be carried out until the National Register of Citizens (NRC) is officially notified, which is expected to happen by mid-next year. The delay is due to persistent discrepancies in the voter lists, including names of deceased persons, minors, and married women with changed surnames or addresses. The Election Commission of India (ECI) has ordered a Special Summary Revision (SR) to address these anomalies first.

Booth Level Officers (BLOs) will visit every household to collect updated information, such as details about deceased voters, changes due to marriage or relocation, and other necessary corrections. Sarma expressed confidence that before the upcoming elections, Assam will have a cleaner and more accurate voter list.

The Chief Minister emphasized that citizenship verification will not be conducted at this stage; it will only happen during the Special Intensive Revision process. The twin processes—the Special Summary Revision followed by the Special Intensive Revision—will together ensure a more accurate electoral roll ahead of the polls.”​

Assam CM: Home Ministry authorizes further investigation into Zubeen Garg’s death

On the 53rd birth anniversary of Assam’s beloved cultural icon Zubeen Garg, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma announced that the Union Home Ministry has granted the mandatory legal sanction required to push forward the investigation into the artiste’s death in Singapore on September 19, 2025. The sanction, approved under Section 208 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), is essential for investigators to formally proceed against the accused persons. This legal provision allows Indian courts to take up a case involving a crime committed outside the country only after the Central Government grants prior sanction.

“This sanction allows us to file the charge sheet and move ahead firmly and lawfully for the trial of the case,” Sarma said, reaffirming the state government’s commitment to submit the charge sheet by December 10. The investigation includes coordination with Singapore authorities, and the Special Investigation Team (SIT) has interrogated around 160 witnesses so far, with several arrests made.

This announcement is seen as a significant administrative breakthrough in a case that has remained in the public spotlight for months. As Assam commemorates Zubeen Garg’s birth anniversary, the government’s renewed assurance provides hope and relief to admirers of the singer whose music defined an era of modern Assamese culture.​

Guwahati is experiencing a severe traffic jam as people go to the recently opened park.

A massive traffic jam brought large parts of Guwahati to a halt on Sunday evening after thousands of visitors flocked to the newly inaugurated Sati Radhika Shanti Udyan at Uzan Bazar. Long queues of people waiting to enter the riverfront park caused hours-long congestion across Uzanbazar, Kharghuli, Chenikuthi, Barowari, and adjoining areas. The park, inaugurated on November 7 by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, has become Guwahati’s newest public hotspot. With free entry until April, crowds have been swelling every evening, triggering traffic bottlenecks on approach roads. Residents criticized poor planning and traffic mismanagement, citing problems of pollution and littering. This weekend gridlock follows a similar traffic collapse on November 9 during an Indian Air Force air show in Machkhowa. Commuters say these incidents show a gap between event planning and on-ground traffic preparedness. Without stricter crowd and traffic management, residents fear prolonged weekend gridlocks.​

44 people are being held in Tinsukia by Government Railway Police and Assam Police due to “doubtful identity.”

A group of 44 people claiming to be residents of Jammu and Kashmir were detained at New Tinsukia Railway Station in Assam on Monday after local youths suspected their “doubtful identity.” The group arrived on the Chandigarh Express and was stopped by locals who alerted the Government Railway Police (GRP) and Hijuguri police outpost officers, who then conducted an inquiry. The individuals claimed they had come on the invitation of a contractor for labour work related to tower erection, earth digging, and a project extending into Arunachal Pradesh. None could clearly state the contractor’s name. Some said they were visiting Tinsukia for the first time and planned to continue to Dibrugarh. Police are verifying their identities and travel purpose. Locals raised concerns due to the group’s large size and uncertain papers, especially in a sensitive region. Police later confirmed all documents were valid and the situation was under control न्यू तिनसुकिया रेलवे स्टेशन, हिजुगुरी पुलिस, जम्मू और कश्मीर.​

Before the 2026 Assembly elections, the EC directs a special revision of Assam’s electoral rolls.

“The Election Commission of India (ECI) has ordered a Special Revision of the electoral rolls in Assam ahead of the state assembly elections scheduled for 2026, with January 1, 2026, as the qualifying date for the revision. This Special Revision stands between the annual Special Summary Revision and the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) and aims to ensure clean, updated, and accurate voter lists. Booth-level officers will conduct door-to-door verification from November 22 to December 20 using pre-filled registers to verify electors, eliminating the need for enumeration forms. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma welcomed the decision, assuring full cooperation for a transparent and timely revision process. The integrated draft electoral roll will be published on December 27, and the final roll on February 10, 2026. This exercise focuses on confirming the eligibility of electors while excluding doubtful voters unless authorized by law.”​
