Guwahati: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma attended a Memorandum of understanding (MoU) singing for Slipway at Pandu. The event was accompanied by the Union Minister of Ports, Shipping, and Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal.
The MoU signing program between Inland Water Authority of India & Hooghly Cochin Shipyard Ltd. intends to establish a new 'Ship Repair Facility at Pandu in Guwahati.
Implementing a significant addition to the region's financial growth under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of Act East Policy, the facility is expected to support waterways connectivity for promoting the movement of oversized cargo to and from the region.
As per the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), the design and implementation of this scheme with the best measures would be assured.
The technical assistance is to be implemented by IIT Madras. The equipment (also known as Slipway) will be developed on an area of 3.67 acres granted by the Government of Assam.
