Itanagar, Dec 19: Gabriel D. Wangsu, Minister for Agriculture, Horticulture, Animal Husbandry & Veterinary, Fisheries, etc conducted impromptu inspections at the Directorate of Fisheries and Directorate of Horticulture in Itanagar. During his visit, he assessed office infrastructure, reviewed ongoing projects, and held discussions with departmental heads and officials.
Minister Wangsu stressed the importance of careful planning and efficient use of funds. He directed the department to develop a comprehensive master plan for the directorate complex, ensuring that future construction projects are strictly aligned with geotechnical assessments and recommended Reduced Level (RL) placements. “Any repair or renovation work without adherence to the master plan will not be entertained to avoid unnecessary expenses,” he stated firmly.

During the meetings, officers of both institutions presented their concerns and challenges, which the Minister assured would be addressed. “As policymakers, we have a unique opportunity to transform the system in Arunachal. Let’s work diligently and dedicate ourselves to creating a better future for our youth and society,” he concluded.
