Itanagar: Kra Daadi is the the 19th district of Arunachal Pradesh created by bifurcating Kurung Kumey district with a view to bring administration to people’s doorstep was created on saturday 7 Feb.
The district bordering the Tibet region of China has two assembly constituencies namely Tali and Palin covering seven circle headquarters including Pipsorang, Tali, Palin, Yangte, Chambang, Gangte and Tarak Langdi.
Jamin, a virgin place situated around 20 kilometers from Palin, would be the headquarters of the new district. The state Assembly on March 20, 2013 passed the Arunachal Pradesh (Re-Organization of Districts) (Amendment) Bill, 2013, paving the way for creation of Kra Daadi along with three other new districts in the state. Chief Minister Nabam Tuki formally inaugurated the new district accompanied by his cabinet colleagues, Parliamentary Secretaries and MLAs in a function organized here on the occasion.
“The district was created keeping in view the administrative bottleneck of the people who had to go to Koloriang, the headquarters of Kurung Kumey district travelling a distance of over 182 kilometers,” Tuki said in his address to a mammoth gathering. Exhorting the people to help the administration in making it a model district of the state, Tuki in his indomitable style said that no development process is possible without the support of the people.
Assuring that the state government would extend all help to make it a full-fledged district within a short time, the Chief Minister said, “A new baby was born today and it is the responsibility of all stakeholders to nurture it with utmost care.” “Put all your efforts to make Kra Daadi a cynosure of all eyes in the days to come by preparing a master plan for its planned development so that administration can run smoothly and effectively,” he said citing example of the state capital which was planned haphazardly.
Highlighting various schemes and projects undergoing in the district, the Chief Minister disclosed that works on two-lane road from Joram to Koloriang was progressing satisfactorily. He said, with the coming up of 330 MW Kurung hydro power project, the economy of the district would be uplifted with opening of employment opportunities for the local educated youths. “The North East Electric Power Corporation (NEEPCO) last month inked a memorandum of agreement with the state government to execute the project soon,” he added.
