The announcement was made during the State Sports Day celebrations held at the Sarusajai premises. The event was attended by Bhogeswar Baruah, several state dignitaries, athletes, and sports enthusiasts.

The decision to rename the complex had earlier received cabinet approval during a meeting chaired by the Chief Minister on May 28. Officials emphasized that the move reflects the government’s commitment to recognizing sporting icons who have inspired generations.
