The Central and State Governments are now jointly focused to build infrastructure in the North Eastern Region. Indian Railways has been the prime mover of the nation and has the distinction of the being the largest railways system in Asia and the second largest railway system in the World under single management. The world is looking to engage with the emerging economic hotspot the East and it is in the North-East India that South East Asia begins. Most urgent and strategic interventions are required for the North Eastern Region to play the arrowhead role for India. The transport infrastructure will be vital to strengthen integration with the region and with the rest of the country, and also for India’s increased integration with the South East. Improving connectivity shall have to be foremost priority for social and economic mobility and market integration. The greater connectivity and economic integration of India’s North East with its Eastern neighbours is to be considering a key focus area for growth and development of the region. The country worked with the vision that India’s growth story will pick up speedier only when the Northeast Region developed at the same pace in a balance manner. The progress of the North Eastern Region will be able to lead vast section of population towards prosperity. Indian Railways has staged a dramatic turnaround in recent year.
