Assam govt to set up Birangana Sati Sadhani State University in Golaghat

Guwahati: The state government has decided to set up Birangana Sati Sadhani State University at Golaghat soon.

Announcing this, Assam minister for education Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the university would be set up to commemorate the last queen of the Chutia dynasty, Sati Sadhani.

“When the Bogibeel bridge was constructed there was a demand to name the bridge Sati Sadhani. However, the Bogibeel name became popular and the name got stuck,” said Sarma as the House passed the “Birangana Sati Sadhani Rajyik Biswavidyalaya act”.
