Attending at the inaugural function of Charaideo Mahotsav at Charaideo Maidam Kshetra, Chief Minister Sonowal said, “Chaolung Sukapha preached about harmony and peace and if we cannot follow the ideals of Swargadeo Sukapha to strengthen the Assamese society we would not be able to show true respect to the founder of greater Assamese identity.”
Saying that Sukhapha was not only a respected figure of Assam but whole of South East Asia who gave Assam its identity, Sonowal stated that there is a need to make concerted effort to study great traits of his personality like humanity, ability to work hard, sincerity and strong moral values etc.
He also urged the people to strive to make Assam one of the top states in the country following Sukapha’s ideals and said that if the state’s resources and potentials can be utilised properly, its progress can be ensured.
