The project “Improvement and upgradation of Mankachar Mahendraganj (Hallidayagani to Jhanjhani) Road” listed for consideration at Empowered Inter-Ministerial Committee (EIMC) meeting of 10.02.2023 could not be taken up in light of clarification from Government of Assam that schemes submitted earlier by the State Government under North East Road Sector Development Scheme (NERSDS) may be taken up only if they are posed afresh by the State Government.

This information was given by Minister for Development of North Eastern Region Shri G. Kishan Reddy in the Lok Sabha in a written reply today.
