I appreciate the inclusion of multiple ministers in these committees, but I hope they'll also consult with local grassroots workers who understand village-level issues better.

Panchayat elections are crucial for rural development. Hope BJP's manifesto addresses clean drinking water and better healthcare facilities in villages. #AssamDevelopment

The team looks strong but I'm concerned about too many ministers being involved. Sometimes local representatives understand ground realities better than state-level politicians.

Interesting to see Pabitra Margherita in the drafting committee. His experience at the center might bring valuable perspective to local governance issues.
