NE Ind and Investment Promo Policy not being implemented: Tuki

Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Nabam Tuki today said the state government has taken several initiatives to ensure food security.
Tuki was while addressing the maiden Food conclave and investors' meet here organised by the Indian Chamber of Commerce (ICC) in collaboration with the state's industries department and funded by the Union Ministry of Food Processing Industries.
Admitting critical gaps in road, air, railway and tele communications, the Chief Minister said the 2008 central package would fill the gap within a few years, but rued that central policies including the NE Industrial and Investment Promotion Policy of April 2007 were not being implemented effectively and a thorough review was needed.

Contradictory laws were hampering tapping of the state's huge potentials including hydro-power when India has been facing energy deficits, Tuki said urging the ICC to take steps in removing the hurdles and come forward to helping Arunachal to tap its potentials.
Arunachalees are fast taking up commercial production and this initiative would benefit them with the investors assuring buyback policy, Tuki said.
Like the job mela initiative for skill development which offered massive opportunities to the local youth, the Chief Minister expressed hope that this meeting would prove to be a harbinger of industrial growth.
Some problems hindering conducive atmosphere for industrial growth in the state would soon be removed with enactment of new laws, he said assuring security to the investors.
