NEC-Led Task Force Charts Roadmap to Attract Investors to North East India




New Delhi/Agartala, 15 May 2025:
The North Eastern Council’s High-Level Task Force on Investment Promotion held its second meeting today, chaired virtually by the Convener in the presence of Hon’ble Union Minister of DoNER, Shri Jyotiraditya Scindia. Senior officials from the Ministry, NEC, and various North Eastern states also participated.

The primary focus of the meeting was to explore actionable steps to create an investor-friendly environment in the region. It was decided that a series of stakeholder consultations will be organised, involving key players such as industry leaders, potential investors, and senior bureaucrats from all eight northeastern states.

A major highlight was the proposal to engage reputed academic institutions and professional agencies for crafting a robust and tailored Investment Policy specific to the North Eastern Region. This policy will serve as a blueprint for attracting capital, generating employment, and accelerating regional growth.

The roadmap will address existing challenges like logistical bottlenecks, infrastructure gaps, and lack of market connectivity, while also highlighting the region’s strategic advantages like rich natural resources, skilled human capital, and cultural diversity.

Union Minister Scindia reiterated the central government’s commitment to turning the North East into a growth engine, stating that investment will not only generate economic momentum but also bring long-term social development.

This strategic push by the NEC Task Force is expected to significantly elevate the investment landscape in the North East and lay the groundwork for transformational growth in the region.
