Brahmaputra Riverfront Development Project in Guwahati Nears Completion

 Guwahati, Assam: The ambitious Brahmaputra Riverfront Development Project in Guwahati is progressing rapidly, with authorities aiming to open it to the public later this year. The project, spearheaded by Guwahati Smart City Limited (GSCL) under the Assam government, is expected to enhance tourism and stimulate economic activities in the region.

Providing a scenic view of the majestic Brahmaputra River, the project is designed to transform the riverfront into a key attraction in the city. Assam Housing & Urban Affairs Minister Jayanta Mallabaruah confirmed the steady progress of the development work and outlined the state's broader vision for urban beautification.

"The riverfront development works are going on at full speed. We are constructing two to three gardens near the Brahmaputra river, and several new additions have been incorporated into the project. Under the leadership of our Chief Minister, these initiatives are moving forward swiftly," said Minister Mallabaruah.

He further emphasized that the Guwahati-North Guwahati connecting bridge will play a crucial role in the city's transformation, paving the way for additional beautification projects.

"Two parks have already been completed as part of the riverfront development. The beautification work is progressing well and is expected to be completed by April. Once finished, Guwahati will emerge as a major tourist destination," he added.

The Brahmaputra Riverfront Development Project is a key part of the Assam government's efforts to modernize Guwahati and position it as a hub for tourism and recreation. With extensive landscaping, gardens, and public spaces in the pipeline, the project promises to offer residents and visitors a vibrant urban experience along one of India's most iconic rivers.
