He said that it is not merely a personal milestone for Kataki, but a matter of immense pride and honour for the entire Excise Department. 

Reinforcing this sentiment, senior excise officer Sailendra Pandey remarked that Kataki’s rise to the highest office of one of the state's most powerful employee organisations has brought distinct prestige, recognition, and elevated stature to the department.                                 The Sadou Asam Karmachari Parishad, historically and popularly referred to in regional contexts as the Karmachari Parishad, is widely recognised as one of Assam’s most influential socio-political and employee bodies, steering the collective voice of state government employees for decades.

The organisation holds a profound historical legacy rooted in Assam’s defining political movements. During the historic Assam Agitation, the Parishad played a monumental role, spearheading powerful demonstrations and public protests that shaped the course of the state's political history. 

Regarded as a widely popular and respected figure among state government employees across various departments, Kumud Kumar Kataki’s ascension to the presidency is seen as a major turning point.

His leadership is expected to infuse fresh momentum into employee welfare advocacy, while etching a historic chapter for the Assam Excise Employees Sangha on the broader canvas of Assam's socio-administrative history. (ANI)
