Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma visited Laheswari Chapari in the Hajo-Sualkuchi constituency to review a land reclamation project.
Nearly 2,500 bighas of land have emerged in the area after the Brahmaputra changed its course, officials said.
The state government plans to scientifically reclaim the land and make it suitable for public and productive use.
Riverbank erosion caused by the Brahmaputra had led to the loss of significant tracts of land across Assam over the years.
