The Assam government has declared that there will be eight book fairs across the state in 2025 as part of the ‘Year of Books’. The fairs will be co-organized by the Publication Board of Assam and the Assam State Textbook Production and Publication Corporation Ltd.
The fairs were scheduled in different districts to maximize participation and cultural reach, and will occur as follows: Bongaigaon (October 22–29), Lakhimpur (November 1–10), Nalbari (November 6–17), Jorhat (November 14–25), Tinsukia (November 28–December 7), Silchar (December 1–10), Mangaldai (December 12–18), and Guwahati (December 24–January 6).
By spreading literary activities across regions, the initiative aims to promote a culture of reading, showcase Assamese literature, and provide a platform for writers, publishers, and readers to engage directly.
