State-of-the-art park boosts Meghalaya's economy

A 106 acre land parcel has been donated to the Meghalaya Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) Limited by Methina Farida Marak, the Nokma of Resu A'king, Resubelpara. This generous donation represents a significant step towards infrastructural advancement in Meghalaya, as the land will be used to establish a state-of-the-art logistics park.

Appreciation towards the Nokma and her clan for their collaborative gesture was conveyed by James PK Sangma, Chairman of MIDC, who remarked, "This initiative by the Nokma is commendable. We extend our gratitude to her and the clan for their proactive engagement with MIDC in executing developmental endeavours within her village, which holds immense significance for Meghalaya."

Emphasising the importance of the logistics park, Sangma stated, "The establishment of a logistics park is imperative. It holds the potential to significantly enhance the state's logistics sector by reducing freight costs and transit times, curtailing warehousing expenses, mitigating vehicular emissions and traffic congestion, and augmenting the monitoring and traceability of shipments through infrastructural, procedural, and technological interventions. I express my gratitude to the Nokma for her forward-thinking approach."

Abraham VI, Chairperson of the Nokma Advisory Committee, highlighted the project's significance in local youth development, stating, "Under the guidance of our esteemed Nokma, we have undertaken numerous initiatives in the past aimed at nurturing local youth. However, this project marks the most significant of such endeavours thus far, and we are delighted to have MIDC as collaborators in this venture."?
