Speaking on the programme held at AAU Veterinary College ground at Khanapara here today, Prof. Mukhi said that in sync with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of transforming North East into an organic hub, the Central government has launched a major organic programme for North East and now the region should be empowered to take advantage of the programme to make North East an organic hub. He, however, said that there is an urgent need for training and competence building, investments, marketing, processing, projects and infrastructure development to accelerate the capacity building of the region to sow the seeds and reap the dividends of organic market. Prof. Mukhi also said that if that is done it would lead to accelerated growth, creation of more jobs for the people of this region.
