First executive council meeting of Pramod Boro-led council held in Kokrajhar

KOKRAJHAR: The first meeting of the Executive Council led by Pramod Boro, BTC chief, was held on Friday after the swearing-in-ceremony. Few important decisions were taken in the meeting. As various reports related to delays in land sale permission and issues related to land transfer have been received from time-to-time, the Executive Council entrusted the responsibility of preparing a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for streamlining all related matters and permissions for public convenience.

Since the BTR accord signing was a major step for ushering in peace and prosperity for the BTR, the executive council resolved to request the governments of India and Assam to expedite the process of Accord Implementation. The executive council also resolved to request for a tripartite meeting on the matter with the governments of India and Assam.

The executive council also resolved to request the Government of Assam for early implementation of Arunodoi and Svayem schemes in BTR region. As part of the peace initiative of the CEM and as announced by him during the oath-taking ceremony too, he designated Kokrajhar as the 'Peace City' of BTC. As part of this endeavour, the executive council resolved to provide three flower pots with white roses to all the shops in the market area as a symbol of lasting peace in the area. The CEM further directed all officials to work with full dedication, transparency and honesty to ensure all-round development of the Bodoland Territorial Region.
