During the event, both Rijiju and Khandu emphasised the importance of IMC's significant role in transforming Itanagar into a truly smart and clean city, setting an example for other cities across India.

The new IMC office building, standing as a symbol of progress and modernity, has been constructed with meticulous planning and an estimated cost of around 15 crore. Its strategic location in the heart of Itanagar ensures convenient access for citizens and staff members alike.

The construction project incorporated the latest architectural and design elements to create a functional, spacious, and technologically advanced facility.

With improved coordination and streamlined operations, the IMC aims to deliver efficient and seamless services to the citizens of Itanagar. The new office building signifies a remarkable step forward in the city's development, marking the commitment of the government to enhance the quality of governance and administration.
