CM launches Rs 110cr devpt blitz in Lakhimpur
1 2 3 4 5 6 Dibrugarh: A sprawling 16-bigha eco park featuring a unique museum of lost trees and Miyawaki forest will soon transform the landscape of Lakhimpur, as chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday launched an ambitious Rs 110 crore development package for the district. The centerpiece North Lakhimpur Eco Park, with an investment of Rs 4.25 crore, promises to become the town's environmental showcase. The innovative facility will house a museum dedicated to extinct and endangered tree species, alongside a dense Miyawaki forest designed to maximize biodiversity in minimal space. The park will also feature carefully curated sections of fruit and medicinal trees, complemented by traditional bamboo groves that reflect Assam's ecological heritage. "This urban forest will provide green lungs to Lakhimpur town," Sarma said during the foundation stone laying ceremony at Chandmari. The eco park represents a forward-thinking approach to urban planning, combining environmental conservation with public recreation in a region where rapid development has often come at nature's expense. The Miyawaki forest methodology, named after Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki, creates native forests that grow ten times faster and become 30 times denser than conventional plantations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah?

Sarma also launched the North Lakhimpur Town Water Supply Scheme Phase-II, a Rs 65 crore initiative that will revolutionise water access for local families. The ambitious project will distribute 8.7 million litre per day of treated piped water to 7,013 households through an extensive 1,11,108-metre network once completed. The CM also inaugurated a new two-story zila parishad building, constructed at a cost of Rs 4 crore.
