Assam chief minister Sarbananda Sonowal on Monday laid the foundation stone of a science city at Tepesia on the outskirts of Guwahati. 

Chief Minister Sonowal said that the young generation of the State must gain knowledge in this field to become human resources of the highest quality. The State government is endeavouring to make Guwahati the gateway to entire South-East Asia and hence infrastructure is being developed at a fast speed. Sonowal said the people who had to travel to places like Kolkata for visiting science cities would now be able to experience such a facility here itself.

This Science city will cost around  Rs 184 crore. The main building of the science city will cost Rs 110 crore and will be built jointly by the National Council of Science Museums. The Centre and the State government will share the total cost of the project in 90:10 ratio.
