Interacting with the deputy secretaries here, Sonowal termed them as capable soldiers and asked them to remain committed to the people and serve them with dedication and honesty.

Stating deputy secretaries, who constitute the second rung of bureaucracy, as the force behind the government to perform, Sonowal asked them to work resolutely to take governance down to the grassroots level.

During the interaction, Sonowal also said that to bring in expediency in administration and for inter-departmental coordination, the government will introduce e-office for the convenience of everybody in secretariat administration.
