    Digital Desk: The Assam cabinet approved three more flyovers in Guwahati on Tuesday. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma declared this at a press conference held in Silchar following the cabinet meeting, which was conducted for the first time in Barak Valley.


    The new flyovers will be built in front of the Down Town Hospital, as well as at Kumarpara and Fatasil Ambari.
