ITANAGAR, May 23: Chief Minister Pema Khandu on Wednesday held a meeting with the Bogong Bango Kebang, Parliamentary Secretary Kaling Moyong and top forest officials to discuss regarding the establishment of a new market complex at Pasighat as proposed earlier.
During the meeting, the Chief Minister asked the forest officials to take up the diversion of 15 ha of forest land with the Ministry of Environment and Forest and Climate Change for construction of the new market complex.
He instructed them for a strong recommendation for diversion as the existing market area in Pasighat is congested and will require new area for expansion.
The market complex was announced by Chief Minister during the Mega Solung celebration at Pasighat in 2016.
