Our Assessment

medium

The Northeast is being developed as an Act East gateway through major connectivity projects (highways, new railway lines to state capitals, expanded airports, the India-Myanmar-Thailand Trilateral Highway and Kaladan multimodal project), the UNNATI 2024 industrial development scheme for the North East, and PM-DevINE and North East Special Infrastructure Development Scheme investments in connectivity, health and education. Progress is significant but uneven, and some cross-border connectivity is affected by instability in Myanmar. Partial.
