KUMARI SUSHMITA DEV (SILCHAR): Madam Speaker, I seek your permission to speak from this seat.

HON. SPEAKER: All right.

KUMARI SUSHMITA DEV: Madam Speaker, today I would like to raise a very burning issue that is affecting my district, Cachar and the Barak Valley region which are in Assam.  Cachar and Barak Valley, as a region, has national highways that connect us to Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura and Meghalaya. To go from Silchar to my own Capital, I have to go through Meghalaya. In this light, I have seen that the Government of India has set up the National Highway Infrastructure Development Company.

          I would request the Government, on behalf of the people of Barak Valley, to grant that highway.  Thank you.

HON. SPEAKER: Shri Radheyshyam Biswas, Shri Bhairon Prasad Mishra and Shri Rajeev Satav are allowed to associate with the matter raised by Kumari Sushmita Dev.
