Arunachal Pradesh is committed to promoting industries, including the textile sector, and is in the process of formulating an investor-friendly industrial policy, chief minister (CM) Pema Khandu said last week inaugurating an apparel and garment unit of Elam Industries in Pasighat. The unit is the state’s first and the largest mechanized textile factory.

On a memorandum submitted by Elam industries proprietor Group Captain (Retd) Mohanto Panging, Khandu said the NITI Aayog will soon revisit the North East Industrial Investment Policy, which has been suspended, and bottlenecks like irregular and insufficient power supply will be addressed.

He said he would discuss with the education department for procurement of school uniform produced by the Elam industries and appealed all private school owners to procure locally-produced school uniforms. He promised to purchase uniforms from the new unit for Tawang Public School, which he runs. (DS)
