Guwahati: Guwahati eateries will stay open until 3:30 AM on July 15, 16, 19, and 20. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma directed the Guwahati district administration to extend hours for the FIFA World Cup semi-finals and final. Football fans need places to watch. This change ensures supporters catch the action without hassle.
Sarma confirmed the policy shift on X. He stated, "football has the power to unite people" and noted the decision aims to help fans enjoy the games. The Chief Minister also gave the green light for district administrations across the state to grant similar extensions. Local officials can approve these hours wherever Restaurant Owners Associations submit requests and public demand is high.
Sarma asked fans to keep things civil while using the late hours. The state government wants to accommodate the surge in interest for the tournament. Business owners should coordinate with local authorities to finalize their specific operating schedules for the upcoming matches.
