Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday evening inaugurated an exhibition showcasing Assam's traditional strengths and future potential, a day ahead of a big-ticket business summit commencing in the state.

From the famous 바카라Muga바카라 silk of Assam to new-age robotics technology, a diverse range of products drew Modi바카라s attention as he visited the stalls and interacted with the participants.

Officials associated with the 'Assam Advantage 2.0 Investment and Infrastructure Summit 2025' said a major highlight of the exhibition is showcasing the host state, 바카라with focus on its traditional strengths and future potential바카라.

The Prime Minister left for the Sarusajai Sports Complex where he will witness the 'Jhumoir Binanandini', a dance performance by nearly 9,000 artistes of the tea tribe community.

''Hon'ble Prime Minister is on his way to Sarusajai to attend the #JhumoirBinandini. The people in Borjhar accorded him a warm welcome as he made his way from the airport'', Sarma said in another post.

The PM will make a round inside the stadium on a special vehicle and greet the artistes and spectators.

The Jhumoir performance will be followed by a laser show on a specific cultural theme of the state.

The Prime Minister will then proceed towards the venue of the Advantage Assam 2.0 Infrastructure and Investment Summit to inaugurate the exhibitions being held in two galleries at the Veterinary College Field in Khanapara area of the city.

The two galleries will have on display exhibits highlighting the traditional industries of the state, titled 'Pride of Assam', and the other gallery will reflect the modern industries and infrastructure development, titled 'Future of Assam'.

The Prime Minister will inaugurate the summit on Tuesday before leaving for New Delhi in the afternoon.

Modi visited the exhibition hall titled 'Assam 바카라 Past, Present and Future', which presents glimpses of the state's traditional industries as well as present infrastructure projects. 바카라Ours was the first stall that the prime minister came to, and he showed interest in knowing more about Assam silk,바카라 Sreyanshi, a designer with the Guwahati-based brand 바카라Golden Threads of Assam바카라, told PTI.

She said Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, who was accompanying the PM, briefed him on the uniqueness of Assam silk, especially 바카라Muga바카라. 바카라The PM wanted to know in detail about 바카라Muga바카라, as the chief minister explained to him how products have diversified from traditional 바카라mekhela-sador바카라 to items like kurtis and cushion covers to reach a wider market,바카라 she said. A Golgahat-based Agar perfume manufacturer바카라s stall also caught Modi바카라s attention. 바카라The prime minister was curious about Agar wood and its use in extracting high-quality perfume. He wanted to know whether it is found in other states as well, to which he was informed that Assam is the major producer of this particular tree,바카라 Pakeeza Rahman, director of the MJI Group, said. She said the Agar perfumes being produced by their company is being promoted under the 바카라One District One Product바카라 initiative, and the Group will soon start exporting the product to other countries. New-age technology-based products coming up in the state was another area that the PM showed interest in at the exhibition, as he visited a stall by a start-up working in the robotics sector for deployment in defence. 바카라It was a great experience to see the PM being interested in our work,바카라 Arnab Barman, founder and CEO of Defence and Space Robotics Laboratory (DSRL), told PTI. Among the other stalls Modi visited include those on tourism and forest resources, local entrepreneurs-led companies working in tea sector, organic farming and water hyacinth-based products, OIL, NRL and the Tata Group. The prime minister will be inaugurating the summit on Tuesday, in presence of heads of missions of over 60 nations, Union ministers, chief ministers, top industry leaders and business delegations from different countries. Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will address the valedictory session on Wednesday. Investment proposals worth Rs 1.22 lakh crore, which were approved by the state cabinet on Sunday, are likely to be signed during the summit, Sarma had said. Modi arrived in Guwahati earlier on Monday and attended a mega 바카라Jhumur' dance performance by nearly 9,000 artistes of the tea tribe community.
