Mizoram Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla today appealed to Union Minister for DoNER Gen (retd) V K Singh that the DoNER Ministry clear all the Non-Lapsable Central Pool of Resources (NLCPR) projects in the northeast, an official statement said.
Lal Thanhawla, who met Singh in Delhi, said that the concerned ministries used to delay approval of the projects resulting in the delay in implementation of projects under the NLCPR.
He also asked the DoNER Minister to expedite approval of the proposed North Eastern Regional Education Council to ensure better education for the people of the region.
The Chief Minister also emphasised the need for speedy implementation of border trade by northeastern states with neighbouring South Asian countries so that the Centre's 'Look East Policy' would benefit the people of the region to the maximum.
