In line with the recent reform of half a dozen sectoral industrial policies, Assam is ready to bring out its own updated industrial policy over the next month and a half.
"Work on the new industrial policy is already done. We are waiting for the centre to release the updated North East Industrial and Investment Promotion Policy (NEIIPP) which will cover all the seven states in the region. After that, whatever gap is left in the policy space will be adjusted by us in our state policy," K K Dwivedi, commissioner of Assam’s industries and commerce department, told Business Standard.
