Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Saturday reprimanded the Nagaon District Collector for halting traffic for his visit which led to a traffic jam near Gumothagaon on National Highway 37.
"I reprimanded officials concerned for halting traffic for me, despite clear direction not to create inconvenience for people during my visit.

Further, Sarma told the bus drivers to continue the traffic movement on the road. The Chief Minister was in Nagaon district today to lay the foundation stone of a road connecting Gumutha Gaon and Maha Mrityunjay Temple with NH 37. (ANI)
