The four-day event will feature sports tournaments, literary contests, a cultural evening, and an exhibition-cum-book fair showcasing Bodo heritage. Key venues, dedicated to respected personalities, will be inaugurated to honour their contributions.

While underlining the platform as an important bridge between ‘aspiration and action’, the statement added, “Beyond discussions, the conference will serve as a bridge between aspirations and action. While leaders and policymakers set the agenda, the real impact will be seen in the years ahead as ideas turn into initiatives, commitments translate into results, and a collective vision transforms into reality.” (ANI)
