Union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman emphasized that externally aided projects in the Northeast should empower local products for global markets and strengthen livelihoods. She highlighted a seven-fold increase in assistance, with over 10,000 km of roads built since 2014. Sitharaman underscored the region's potential, stating that EAPs offer a development model combining central support, state execution, and global expertise for local communities.
