Ladies and Gentlemen,
It gives me immense pleasure to participate in the award giving ceremony of the Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed Memorial Award for National Integration. I would like to congratulate Shri Shekhar Gupta and Smt. Shabana Azmi, who though she has not been able to come here today, for getting this award for the years 2006 and 2007 respectively.
It is indeed a proud privilege to be amongst you all at Tezpur. You are the first amongst us, in India, who receive the earliest rays of dawn. I see much cheer on your faces and determination in your eyes, which convinces me that the nation is in safe hands.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
It is, indeed, a pleasure to be here today on the occasion of the Foundation Stone Laying Ceremony of the Tezpur Medical College.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am happy to inaugurate Baljek Airport. I understand that this is the second airport in Meghalaya and will provide connectivity to this part of the State from the rest of the country. This is an airport built by the State Government, so I congratulate the State for focusing on building critical infrastructure for development.
Dear Students,
Teachers,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
