Himanta opens new assembly secretariat building

Guwahati: Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday inaugurated the new assembly secretariat building, a digital museum and the artificial intelligence-powered digital information system ‘ALISA – AI for Legislative Intelligence System of Assam’ within the assembly.

The 17-storey secretariat building, including the ground floor, has been equipped with state-of-the-art facilities. Spread over approximately 8,000 square metres, the building will be operated through a centralised Building Management System (BMS), enabling control of electrical and other technical installations on different floors from a single location.


The digital museum has been designed with multiple galleries showcasing the role of the Assam Legislative Assembly in shaping the state’s political landscape, milestones in Assam’s democratic journey and the contributions of leaders in strengthening the state’s democratic, social and cultural fabric.

Sarma later launched ‘ALISA – AI for Legislative Intelligence System of Assam’ at the Central Hall of the assembly.

Powered by artificial intelligence, the system enables rapid analysis and retrieval of information and statistics from the Assembly’s repository, including legislative records and decisions spanning nearly a century. The platform provides information in Assamese, Bodo, Hindi and English.

“Do visit the new digital museum at the Assam Legislative Assembly Complex. Several new age technologies have been deployed to recreate the glorious contribution played by our legislature in building Assam. I found the depiction of some our stalwarts extremely life like,” the CM posted on X.
