The Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER) has sanctioned Rs 200 crore for flood affected reconstruction works in the four North Eastern States of Assam, Nagaland, Manipur and Mizoram.
This was disclosed here today by the Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) of the Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER), MoS PMO, Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions, Atomic Energy and Space, Jitendra Singh.
Pertinent to mention that during his visit to Northeast in August this year to review the flood situation in the four States, the Prime Minister Narendra Modi had announced a flood relief package of Rs 2,000 crore.
Jitendra Singh said, this year had witnessed unprecedented floods and the rainfall was more than 100 per cent higher than that in the preceding months during the same period of time. As a result, he said, the damage was colossal and the relief and rehabilitation operations also got disrupted.
Singh said, a high-level committee has also been constituted to monitor the flood related operations and plan for future roadmap to avoid such situations.
Referring to the keen interest and priority shown by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Jitendra Singh recalled that not only the Prime Minister began monitoring the flood situation right from day one, but he was also personally calling up the Chief Ministers of the concerned States for the latest feedback and also offered important tips and advice.
