Guwahati, June 15 (IBNS) : Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal on Wednesday announced that his government will preserve the house of Swahid Kushal Konwar and will repair the road that leads to the house of the martyr at Balijan near Sarupathar in Golaghat district.

Speaking on the death anniversary function of Swahid Kushal Konwar at Nehru Park, Sonowal said that Swahid Kushal Konwar, who wholeheartedly dedicated himself in the country’s freedom struggle and sacrificed his life, needs highest degree of obeisance from everybody.

Leading the State in paying rich floral tributes to this great son, Sonowal said that his government would do everything for preserving the house of the martyr and the road that leads to the martyr’s house would be repaired.

Reiterating his government’s commitment to value the sacrifice of Kushal Konwar and look after his lineage, Sonowal said that his (Kushal Konwar’s) contribution to India’s freedom movement curved a niche for the State in the national landscape.

“Kushal Konwar inspired us to value honesty, morality and humanity and he exemplified his love for the nation through his valour and sacrifice,” Sonowal said.

Sonowal also attended an all faith prayer meeting held on the occasion where Jamuna Konwar daughter-in-law of Kushal Konwar, other freedom fighters and senior citizens were present.

Mayor of Guwahati Municipality Corporation Mrigen Sarania, MLA Dispur Constituency Atul Bora, Deputy Commissioner Kamrup (M), Dr. M. Angamuthu, and other dignitaries were also present on the occasion.
