New Delhi: Union Minister of Communications and Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER) Jyotiraditya M. Scindia participated in three High Level Task Force meetings, pressing for integrated development of the tourism, agriculture and transport sectors across the North Eastern Region, the government informed on Tuesday.
The High Level Task Force (HLLTF) meetings were convened on October 27, which saw the presence of chief ministers of respective states, namely Mizoram, Meghalaya and Sikkim, an official statement said.
These task forces are fostering interstate collaboration, enabling policy alignment, and ensuring that development efforts are regionally integrated rather than state-bound, the statement noted.
The inputs from Meghalaya, Assam and Manipur were sought, and Scindia asked the Mizoram government to submit a final report incorporating feedback.
