District Commissioner Mridul Yadav held a review meeting here to identify suitable land across tea estates and ensure that construction work can begin without administrative delays, it said.

The scheme for developing resting facilities for tea labourers, a flagship initiative of the Assam government's Tea Tribes and Adivasi Welfare Department, is a direct step towards improving the daily lives of the plantation workers.
