Explanation:

Due to distinct topography, a wide gap exists between the hill and valley districts of the states in terms of infrastructure, quality of roads, health and education, etc. The Hill Development Programme aims to address these drawbacks with a serious research and deliberation. Under this mission, the government will adopt a two-fold approach. The first approach is to ensure equitable development of every area, tribe and every section in the North Eastern Region. The second approach is to bring the eight North Eastern Region States at par with the more developed states of India.
