Guwahati, Oct 4 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Assam government has decided to auction the gifts received by the various ministers, officials said on Wednesday.
Assam Education Minister Ranoj Pegu said that state cabinet has taken a decision, saying that the gifts received by various ministers are government properties.
“I also receive a lot of gifts as minister, but these are not individual properties. All the gifts received by us are owned by the state government,” Pegu said.
The state government will build a warehouse where all the gifts will be kept.
It has been also decided that the funds collected through auction of gifts will be deposited into Chief Minister’s relief fund.
