Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Nabam Tuki today acknowledged the role of NABARD in expanding infrastructure network in the state through RIDF and in implementing various development projects at grassroots level.
Inaugurating the NABARD's Office-cum-Residential Complex here, Tuki mentioned that during his interactions with villagers across the state, he has heard about one institution doing something for them, which is NABARD.
He also mentioned that among the financial institutions operating in the state, NABARD's contribution is far greater than any others and expressed wish of receiving more funding under RIDF and outside RIDF.
He also expected advisory support from NABARD in future years.
The chief minister congratulated the bank's Chairman Dr. H K Bhanwala for being the first to visit the state.
He said that while NABARD has already sanctioned projects involving financial assistance of more than Rs.1200 crore, with the coming up of its own office cum residential complex, it would be much easier and convenient for NABARD to broaden it's horizon in the state.
