A large number of Non-Resident Indians with root in Assam have been pursuing different professions in almost all the countries of the world. Many Assamese are prospering in India, outside Assam as well. With a view to establishing contact and also for interaction with them for obtaining their valuable counsel for growth and development of Assam, a convention of the NRIs of Assam origin and other Assamese living outside Assam (all non-resident Assamese or NRAs) is going to be held at Srimanta Sankardev Kala Khetra, Guwahati on 27 & 28 December, 2003.
The convention will cover various issues on which the NRAs may extend their help for development of Assam such as quality education, improvement of the primary sector, real estate and urban development, power, tourism, agro-processing, pharmaceuticals, and process industries.
