Sustainable Exploitation of oil and gas potential of the North East region could be a harbinger of economic prosperity for the people of the region. Presently there seems to be a disconnect between the local communities and the Exploration and Production (E&P) operators in the region. This seems to be discouraging E&P activities in the region thereby reducing the number of takers for operations in the region. Although the Govt. of India has been taking several initiatives to promote E&P in the NER, it is essential to make the local communities an important stakeholder in the process.

Suggestions are invited from the public which could encourage people's participation in these activities.

North East is economically backward region where local communities with income level below the poverty line certified by state governments should be given preference in employment in exploration and production activities of ONGC and Oil India. The Contractors in exploration and production activities for ONGC and Oil India should facilitate in getting the certificates from state government for below the poverty line people as they can not afford to get certificate from corrupt officials of state goverment. This will ensure greater participation of local communities with the below the povertyline income.

North East has 34% of the country’s water resources and possesses almost 40% of India’s hydro power potential so we have to invite private power companies to utilise this more to produce power than asking for hydro power from bhutan and nepal.

Revisit the Border Trade Agreement with Myanmar and substantially increase the list of tradable items through barter system.n the absence of a realistic exchange rate, growth of exports to Myanmar has suffered. The official exchange rate of Myanmar’s currency kyat is hugely inflated. However, in the informal market the rate is 25 to 30 Kyat for a rupee.

A 257-km railway route from Jawahar Nagar railway station in north Tripura to Kolasib in northern Mizoram and Myanmar’s Darlon has been proposed to connect with the TAR network. If Tripura and Manipur are linked with the TAR network, the north eastern states would be the gateway to South East Asian countries.

It is proposed that a ring road should be developed connecting all the north eastern states. The road would cover a distance of around 4,000 km and would mostly follow existing road alignments, except for a few small stretches.

The network will connect Bhutan to the IWT terminal in Dhubri and beyond to Bangladesh and Kolkata through the IWT mode. It will make the IWT terminal at Dhubri attractive for exporting goods to Bhutan.

4. ONGC and other oil PSUs can bring in their domain expertise and experience in training local youth in oil exploration jobs. 5. Govt can utilize experience of these PSU s to ensure faster results in building oil exploration and production industry in north east.

Why are we increasing the duty of petrol again. Infact government should pass the benefits to the customer. Price has been down 40% since june but govt reduced only 8% for petrol. Need to have more transparency and people friendly governance
