It has been learnt Union Home Minister of State Kiren Rijiju assured the release of central share for 17 projects. 
 
In the meanwhile, The lawmakers of Tawang district in Arunachal Pradesh have hailed the Centre’s decision to construct an airport in the area and said the project would boost connectivity. 
 
"Construction of airport at Tawang is a two-edged sword which will not only help from the defence point of view but will also improve the socio-economic condition of the people in the remote border district that has remained isolated from mainland India due to poor road connectivity,” Urban Development, Art and Culture Minister Pema Khandu has reportedly said.
