The Provincial Commissions
The Commissions of the Salesian Province of Guwahati operate under the direction of the Provincial and are coordinated by the Vice Provincial. These commissions serve as essential organs of animation and coordination in the Province’s apostolic mission. Each commission meets regularly to plan, evaluate, and implement activities in line with its area of focus.
