Held threadbare discussions on several important issues with Chief Minister of Meghalaya Shri Conrad Sangma ji at the Chief Ministers’ Level Meeting in Guwahati.

Key takeaways

Assam and Meghalaya realise that development in both States is mutually inclusive and we need to work together to move ahead in the path of development

Assam and Meghalaya will develop the Kulsi Irrigation project to benefit our farmers, which will be funded by Govt of Assam

Both States will jointly build the 55 MW Kulsi Power Project after discussions with the local communities

Of the 6 resolved boundary disputes, some minor hiccups are there which will soon be resolved after discussions between concerned parties and boundary pillars will be marked

The remaining 6 disputed sites will be resolved at a mutually agreeable time

Both States agreed to find a solution to the urban flooding issue in Guwahati which benefits both States.

We have agreed to entrust NESAC to do a proper satellite mapping of the area post which we will request IIT Roorkee to suggest a tangible solution to the issue:
