Average no. of departures per week from NE Airports increased sharply Larger and more regular air connectivity to NER, specifically within the region necessary. Guwahati being developed as a regional hub (Sept. 2014). Will help improve connectivity Intra-regional network in NE is weak and needs to be developed. NEC has invited bids (with VGF support) with little success so far Need to approve recommendations of Committee under Member (NE), PC on issues relating to air connectivity by Alliance Air. Shillong-Kolkata services resumed since 10 Jul. 2013, may be discontinued again by Alliance Air 24

New TDC March 2016 Work on NH-44 has been stalled for quite some time. Need for fast pace after the re-distribution & being taken up by State PWD Work on NH-53 (Jiribam-Imphal) critical. Needs early completion Silchar Bridge being replaced with support from M/o DONER. Need for early completion of project Dhola Sadiya Bridge (river Brahmaputra) targeted for completion in Work going on well Road to Vijaynagar from Miao needs early sanction Construction of Bridge over Feni river (Tripura) connecting Bangladesh taken up with MEA support. Work should start early Replacement of all semi-permanent timber bridges in the region. Special focus and be funded by State Govts., along with Central assistance under SPA over next 3 years.
