A Staff Reporter Itanagar, June 18 The Digital Mission of Arunachal Pradesh gets a major boost after a detailed roadmap was agreed upon by the Govt of India. This development is a result of the threadbare deliberations with Smti. Aruna Sharma, Secretary, DeitY (Ministry of IT), Director General, Ms. Nita Verma, of NIC and their respective officers in a strategy meeting held on 16th June 2016 at Electronics Niketan, New Delhi with a team led by Chief Secretary, Mrs. Shakuntala Gamlin, the Chief Secretary of Arunachal Pradesh. The purpose of this high-level strategy meeting as attended by the top decisionmakers was to address the various issues and bottle-necks with regard to IT, eGovernance and Telecom issues in the State. The Chief Secretary briefed about the status of the various core infrastructure projects such as NOFN, SWAN, SDC, USOF, NKN, etc. and stated that, though these projects are in traction within the State but
agriculture fields vis-a-vis the farmers,” he added. Exhorting upon the officials to prepare Annual Action Plan, Singh said, “The agriculture officials have to go to the districts to prepare the Action Plans. If we can come all the way from Delhi to Guwahati, then the officials in Dispur have to go to the districts to assess the ground reality and to prepare the Annual Action Plan by meeting the requirements.” The Minister pointed out that there could no excuses for officials for delay in getting funds from the Ministry as ‘per the direction of our Prime Minister, funds go straight to the coffers of the State exchequers after vote on account within 24 hours.” Singh urged the officials to adopt latest technologies visa-vis mobile app, smart phones and video conferencing instead of doing work manually to update data from the fields on a regular basis.

Speculation has been rife over whether Rajan, former IMF Chief Economist known to have predicted the 2008 global financial crisis, would get a second term after BJP leader Subramanian Swamy launched a no-holds barred
Swamy had also questioned whether Rajan was "mentally, fully Indian" as he holds a US Green Card, among other allegations. 53-year-old Rajan, who
took charge as RBI Governor in September 2013 with a three-year term, had also ruffled feathers in the saffron camp with his outspoken views on issues like intolerance and his remarks about India being 'one-eyed king in the land of blind'.
