Policies still remain a Governments policies and not a peoples programme due to lack of Local Support Sub-optimal results of schemes due to inefficient implementation Poor evaluation and monitoring due to inconsistent flow of funds through State government Inadequate development of schemes inspite of higher fund release Lower transparency and high time & cost overrun Local trade influenced by insurgency results in reduced local financial autonomy
In the underdeveloped region of North-East India, infrastructure is of utmost priority . Setup of institutional base be it education, healthcare, communication , transportation or employment , it is important for any scheme or plan that could be efficiently implemented. Infrastructure is itself a broad term, gives no scope to apply for policies that could easily reach and benefit local people. Education sector requires schools and colleges to provide a support system to other sectors, Health sector requires not just hospitals but also include sanitation, hygienic environment, clean drinking water and many more. Disaster Management also acts as a cushion for development of setbacks during emergencies and hence prevents economy from a slow down. So, infrastructure development is basic requirement for any area to flourish and for North-East, it would prove to be a tool for stimulating all-round development. Infrastructure should be backed up by proper planning of schemes to be implemented and manage common issues prevailing in the region.

Infrastructure for education sector should be taken as a priority. High literate population show that people are interested in learning. Existing government schools should be revitalized to new educational curriculum & trained teaching staff. New institutes for primary education set up in rural areas. Institutes for vocational training also to be set up for existing literate & unemployed population. Lack for teaching staff can be adjusted with IT enabling virtual classrooms. Proper management & monitoring required at each step. Local existing professionals could volunteer mass awareness campaign about the schemes & institutions. Down to top approach can be implemented in drafting and implementation of the schemes To improve transparency of schemes, book and record keeping & surveying should be kept in online database.

Conclusion
India is moving into a new era of economic liberation so North east region should not be left out. The framework for development of the region can be broadly based upon four vital components :- Social empowerment, Economic empowerment, Partnership development, Project management. Social empowerment needs to empower rural communities, create sustainable institutions so that they manage common activities around microfinance, livelihoods and natural resource management. Economic empowerment should ideally be to develop the capacity of rural communities to plan and manage funds for various economic initiatives and common activities for the public. Partnership development should be to partner with various service providers, resource institutions and public and private sector organisations to bring resources such as finance, technology, and marketing into the project so that the community groups are able to improve their livelihoods. Final component, project management should facilitate various governance, implementation, co-ordination, learning and quality enhancement efforts in the project. With some of the changes that we attempts to deliberate upon, a process could be set in motion that could support the North East in its endeavour to contribute to the economic resurgence of the home region as well as to the development of the rest of the country that is what our aim is Reforming Indias Development by Shining North East.
