Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday (February 14, 2026) inaugurated a six-lane bridge on the Brahmaputra River in Assam. The ₹3,030-crore Kumar Bhaskar Varma Setu will connect Guwahati with North Guwahati. It is the first extradosed Prestressed Concrete (PSC) bridge in the Northeast. After the inauguration, PM Modi took a walk on the bridge.

Assam Governor Lakshman Prasad Acharya and Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma were also present on the occasion. The Prime Minister unveiled IIM Guwahati and inaugurated a high-tech data centre that would cater to the entire Northeast.

Mr. Modi virtually inaugurated the temporary campus of the Indian Institute of Management Guwahati, which is expected to give a major fillip to higher education and management education in the northeastern region.
