Assam greenlights turning state into logistics hub

The Assam Cabinet has approved a new policy to turn the state into a logistics hub. It also amended existing acts to widen the scope of master plans for development of Guwahati and other urban areas. Among the key features of the policy is proposal evaluation and incentive disbursement through the EoDB (Ease of Doing Business) portal. Industrial park developed by AIIDC and AIDC will earmark 15% of its land for development of logistics infrastructure including logistics park, truck terminal, cold storage, warehouses, and primary processing centres as per the new policy.

Another important aspect of the policy is that the department of Revenue and Disaster Management will prioritise land conversion wherever necessary for setting up logistics facilities.
