Union Minister Anupriya Patel emphasized the Northeast’s crucial role in India’s growth, particularly under the Act East policy, at the Rising North East Investors Summit 2025 in Delhi. She highlighted healthcare as a key sector, urging private sector participation to improve access to quality and affordable healthcare in the region. Patel noted that the central government collaborates with state governments to enhance healthcare services, with the private sector playing a vital supplementary role.

The two-day summit, held on May 23-24 at Bharat Mandapam, aims to attract investments across eight Northeastern states, focusing on sectors like infrastructure, tourism, agro-food processing, IT, energy, textiles, education, and semiconductors. Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the event, reiterating the government’s commitment to the Northeast’s development and calling it a pillar of a “Viksit Bharat” (Developed India).

The summit includes ministerial sessions, business meetings, and exhibitions showcasing policies to promote investment. Key sectors targeted include tourism, agro-food, healthcare, education, IT, infrastructure, energy, and entertainment. The event reflects the government’s vision to empower, act, strengthen, and transform the Northeast region.

The summit also provided a platform for startups and entrepreneurs from the Northeast to showcase their innovations. Networking opportunities with investors and government officials aimed to accelerate regional economic growth and create sustainable employment.
