Question 886

In June 2021, the Assam government will gradually implement a two-child policy for availing benefits under specific schemes funded by the state. Who is the current CM of Assam?

Answer

Himanta Biswa Sarma

Why?

The correct answer is Himanta Biswa Sarma. The Assam government will gradually implement a two-child policy for availing benefits under specific schemes funded by the state. The proposed population control policy will, however, not be applicable in all the schemes in Assam immediately as many of the benefits are offered by the central government. Assam currently has a two-child norm for contesting in Panchayat polls. Assam: Chief Minister - Himanta Biswa Sarma. Governor - Jagdish Mukhi. Number of districts - 33. Lok Sabha seats - 14. Rajya Sabha seats - 7.
