Gopal, who on Monday sat for a meeting with D K Kamra, the regional executive director of AAI said that the initiation is required so as to ensure transparency and accountability and also to stop or tap the misuse of such schemes.

The Chief Secretary on the day also reviewed the project status of the airports in Tezu and Hollongi besides taking stock of the status of proposed four lane road to Tezu Airport, shifting of utilities and requisite forest and environment clearance etc.
