In his speech, Hazarika said that the Bhergaon SDO(C) office, which was established way back in 2004, lacked the required infrastructure and the sub-treasury office was a long pending demand.

The event, presided over by Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) Deputy Speaker Nerswn Boro, was addressed by a host of speakers including Kalaigaon MLA Maheswar Baro, Panery MLA Kamali Basumatari among others.

The speakers said that setting up of the sub-treasury office would benefit the pensioners and Government servants, in Bhergaon sub-division.
