Meghalaya is among the top states in the world ‘Compliance Reduction and Deregulation 1.0’, reforms meant to cut through unnecessary red tape when doing business.
There were three states in joint first place (Tripura, Odisha and Uttar Pradesh), two in joint second (Haryana and Madhya Pradesh) and two in joint third (Meghalaya and Rajasthan). The rankings were compiled by the cabinet secretariat of the central government.
In a social media post today, Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma said that Meghalaya had successfully completed and implemented all 23 priority areas.
“These reforms span five critical sectors – land, building and construction, labour, utilities and permissions, along with overarching priorities, reflecting a comprehensive approach to governance reform,” he said.
Through these actions, the government is simplifying regulations, streamlining processes and enhancing the ease of doing business by “eliminating unnecessary compliance burdens for businesses and investors.”
