Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal, in a meeting held at the Dibrugarh Circuit House, reviewed implementation of the Kanaklata Mahila Sabalikaran Achoni in Dibrugarh and Tinsukia districts of upper Assam.

During the review meeting, the CM emphasized on productive use of revolving funds released by Self Help Groups (SHGs) in order to uplift their economic conditions.

"There is also need for imparting technical and commercial knowledge among the beneficiary groups so that they can effectively utilise the schemes" the CM said.

Sonowal also directed the Panchayat and Rural Development department to organise extensive training programmes for SHGs at block level. He also asked the department to involve local MLAs in the same.
