June 10, 2014Press Release:
The Northeast of India is endowed with huge untapped natural resources and is rich biodiversity. It is acknowledged as the eastern gateway of India’s Look-East Policy. It shares the international boundaries of India with China, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal and Myanmar. Generously endowed with vast stretches of fertile land, rich expanse of forests and substantive mineral and hydrocarbon deposits, India’s northeast is potentially one of the richest geographical units of the country. The present economic policy framework for the Northeast region is based on its political economy and a cultural approach, adjusted with a regional planning model. It is implemented mainly through the Planning Commission and the Northeast Council. Despite huge financial investments, this has failed to produce desired results. With Myanmar becoming a member of the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN), a common market of 500 million consumers is at the doorstep of the Northeast.
A half day Summit was organised at Landmark Hotel, Guwahati on Friday, 6th June 2014. The Inaugural summit was titled GO NORTH-EAST 2014 and its Principal sponsor was Supreme & Co Pvt. Ltd., Kolkata.
