“We are even more excited that the first Koo in Assamese is his (CM) and that he’s launched the Assamese on Koo,” Radhakrishna said.

He hoped that the people of Assam would love to interact with him and each other on Koo and exchange thoughts around various topics.

“Assam is a large state with a population of over 30 million and the people have a high affinity towards their language. Koo will be one of the few platforms where they will be able to connect with each other, exchange thoughts in Assamese and make new friends too”, he added.

Koo was founded in March 2020, as a micro-blogging platform in Indian languages and is available in multiple Indian languages with people from across different regions expressing themselves in their mother tongue.

“In a country where just 10 per cent of India speaks English, there’s a deep need for a social media platform that can deliver immersive language experiences to Indian users and help them connect with each other. Koo provides a stage to the voices of Indians who prefer Indian languages”, the founders pointed out.Koo App Launches Assamese Service, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma Shares His Post in the Language | 📲 LatestLY
