Assam Govt Defends Land Allotment for Cement Factory

The Assam government is allowing a company called Mahabal Cement to build a cement factory.

They gave the company a large piece of land (3000 bighas) in Dima Hasao.

The government says they followed the rules when giving the land.

The company will have to get permission from the government before starting construction.

The company will have to pay rent each year and a large one-time fee for the land.

A part of the land must be kept as green space.

The government says the central government will make the final decision about the factory.

No construction can start until all necessary approvals are obtained.
