Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma: Following in the footsteps of trailblazers like sprinter Hima Das and Olympic medal-winning boxer Lovlina Borgohain and inspiring the next generation of athletes from Assam, water sports enthusiast Nikhamoni Bora has become the state's first certified female sailor.
