Around 6,100 people will be benefited from direct employment under these projects.
The state cabinet also approved providing a monthly pension of Rs 15,000 each to 301 Loktantra Senani of the 1975 Emergency.

Earlier in March 2022, Assam and Meghalaya governments had signed a historic agreement here in the national capital to resolve their 50-year-old pending border dispute.
The agreement was signed between Assam and Meghalaya two months after a draft resolution was submitted by the chief ministers of the two states to Amit Shah on January 31 for examination and consideration by the MHA.
The governments of Assam and Meghalaya had come up with a draft resolution to resolve their border disputes in six of the 12 “areas of difference” along the boundary.
