Arunachal Pradesh CM Pema Khandu emphasized empowering government officials for state welfare. Speaking at Pasighat, he stressed a problem-solving focus for accelerated development, insisted on strengthening districts for improved service delivery, and introduced 'bottom-up planning' with district development plans led by deputy commissioners.

Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu emphasized the importance of empowering government officials as a pivotal step towards welfare and development. During a review meeting in Pasighat, East Siang district, Khandu advocated for a shift towards solution-oriented approaches by government officers to spur development in the state and society.

Khandu highlighted the transient nature of political roles, contrasting it with the permanence of government employees. 'Politicians may be temporary, but your role in the state's development is lasting and crucial,' he remarked, urging government staff to recognize their pivotal role in progress.
