You need to take NH31 from Siliguri to Guwahati. Part of the road is 4 lane due to Golden Quadrilateral.

You need to be careful in Bongaigaon & Nalbari and make sure you pass that area in day time only.

Guwahati to Shillong is a breeze drive though its uphill at some points.

Also you check Rahul-da's thread on the route to Siliguri (to avoid NH 34).
