Arunachal Pradesh Chief
Minister Nabam Tuki said the government would provide at least one job
to each member of a household, either in private, Public Sector or
self-employment.
"We will target
creation of one lakh new jobs during the five year period beginning from 2013 and
create at least 25,000 such new opportunities during the current year. For
skill development and capacity building, we have already set up Employment
Generation and Skill Development Councils.
Tuki lauded the people
for reposing their faith in the state government and partnering in the
development of the state.
"We have to
rebuild, re-dedicate and reiterate our unity and march on with a sole mission
of peace and progress. I and all my colleagues reaffirm our responsibilities of
working tirelessly towards turning the aspirations of the people into
reality," The last few years have brought about a positive change in the
development trajectory of the state, he said.
"In 2007, the
state's per capita income was 10 per cent lower than the national per capita
income. Today it is almost 10 per cent higher. Our annual growth rate during
the 11th Five Year Plan has been 9.4 per cent, which is about 1.5 per cent
higher than the national growth rate," Tuki pointed out.
"Our sincere
efforts have resulted in realistic progress in health, education, agriculture,
horticulture, sports, tourism and social sectors. We have also made progress in
road communication and railway and air connectivity," he disclosed.
Tuki assured that the
trans-Arunachal Highway, which is under construction, will connect and
inter-link 11 districts of the state while Itanagar will be connected by a
4-lane highway with rest of the country. The railway connectivity is also fast
coming up and the state will also be in the railway map of the country.
