GUWAHATI, Jan 31 - The Purbottar Pradeshiya Marwari Sammelan has welcomed the move of the Asam Sahitya Sabha and the district administration to write the signboards of shops and business establishments in the State in Assamese. In a statement, the Sammelan said that most of the businessmen of Fancy Bazar had placed the names of their shops and establishments in Assamese.
�We appeal to those who have not yet used Assamese in their signboards to do it immediately. We also urge the MNCs operating in the State to do the same.
