At the ETNow.in Business Conclave & Awards 2025, Arunachal Pradesh Governor KT Parnaik discussed the state’s investment potential and ease of doing business. He highlighted land reforms introduced to attract investors and support infrastructure projects.
Land Reforms to Boost Investments
Governor Parnaik explained that most land in Arunachal belongs to tribes and villages, making land acquisition for industries challenging. To address this, the government has identified land parcels for industrial use:
- Government industries can lease land for 50 years.
- Private companies can lease land for 99 years.
Additionally, one-window clearance and an ease of doing business act have been implemented to simplify processes for investors.
Economic Growth and Business-Friendly Environment
Parnaik emphasized that language is not a barrier in Arunachal, as most people speak Hindi and English, making business operations smoother. The state has also launched a monitoring dashboard to track approvals and streamline investment processes.
Over the past five years, Arunachal’s GSDP, per capita income, and capital expenditure have doubled, signaling strong economic growth and investor confidence.
