The 8th International Conference and Gathering of Elders has begun today at Shiksha Valley School in Dibrugarh and it will continue till February 1 .
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma inaugurated the conference in the presence of RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat.
Addressing the gathering, Sarma said, “It is truly an honour and privilege to stand before you at the International Conference and Gathering of Elders. First of all let me welcome you to the state of Assam, Assam is an important state of India and I am sure in the next 5 days you will be able to explore our beautiful state.”
