NE MPs call for completion of pending rail projects
Assam Tribune | New Delhi, March 23
Participating in the discussion in Rajya Sabha, Biswajeet Daimary said that this year no new project was announced for the region perhaps because whatever projects were sanctioned in the past 10-15 years are yet to be completed. The North-east is an isolated and backward region and therefore it should be seen in a different light, he suggested, adding that there is a need to frame a special policy for the region.
Listing out the pending projects, he said there was a proposal to connect Manipur with railway but the State is yet to see trains in the State. A portion of Nagaland is connected till date and Arunachal Pradesh is yet to see railway connectivity. Tripura has rail connection but when the entire country has BG connection, the State was connected with MG.
