What Rahul Kumar Gupta had to say about the FIFA Fan Park at Silchar

Rahul Kumar Gupta, during a press conference on Tuesday, said that the administration had made comprehensive arrangements to ensure that sports lovers and their families can enjoy every match in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment. "We appeal to citizens to participate enthusiastically, maintain discipline, cooperate with the administration, and make the CM's Fan Park a memorable sporting celebration for everyone," he added.

Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma announced that the initiative of CM FIFA Fan Park, is organised by the Assam Tourism Development Corporation, creating a vibrant community viewing experience during the world's biggest football tournament.

The first fan park opened at Latasil Playground in Guwahati on June 29, and the second venue at Chowkidingee Field in Dibrugarh on June 30. Both locations are broadcasting FIFA World Cup matches live, allowing football enthusiasts to enjoy the action in a festive, stadium-like atmosphere alongside fellow fans.
