    Under the guidance of CM Sarma, Assam took various collective steps in the conservation of the animals. In 2021, Assam organized an exceptional event for burning all the collected horns of one-horned rhinos. Through this event, the state government presented a message for the poachers that there is no medical significance associated with these horns.
