Itanagar, Nov 22: Arunachal Pradesh Governor Lt. General KT Parnaik (Retd.), reviewed the implementation and utilisation of PM Gati Shakti in the State at Raj Bhavan, Itanagar, on Saturday. State Chief Secretary, Manish Gupta, Commissioner (Planning), Ankur Garg, briefed the Governor about the PM Gati Shakti portal and its processes, while the Director, Arunachal Pradesh Space Application Centre, Dr. H. Dutta, presented a PowerPoint Presentation on its applications.
The Governor emphasized that every department of the State must make full and effective use of the PM GatiShakti repository while planning and executing developmental projects. He said that the powerful platform, with its wealth of integrated data, can significantly enhance the State’s ability to plan smarter, avoid delays, and ensure better coordination across sectors.
The Governor further suggested that, in addition to GatiShakti, the State should consider developing its own dedicated application, an integrated digital tool designed to support governance. He said that such an application would help officials analyze data more efficiently, plan projects with greater precision, and monitor progress in real time. This would assist in efficient governance, strengthen administrative effectiveness, and also ensure that development reaches people faster and more transparently, he said.
The Governor also advised the officials to explore applications for Vibrant Village Programme monitoring and analysis, disaster management, anti-drugs, and agri-horticultural projects.
Secretary Planning, RK Sharma, Secretary Information Technology, Dr. Sonal Swaroop, Arunachal Pradesh Space Application Centre Scientist, Dr. S. Acharjee, and PM GatiShakti Data Centre Young Professional, Wapol Mosang, attended the meeting.
