Guwahati, Jan 8 (PTI) Projects worth Rs 168 crore were inaugurated by Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma in Karbi Anglong district on Monday.

Speaking on the occasion, Sarma lauded the Karbi society for maintaining their rich socio-cultural traditions and remaining firm in their ancient belief system.
Noting that the history of the Karbi community dates back to 3000 BC, he said they have been moving forward through the practice of Honghari faith, the traditional belief system based on clan and ancestors.
