Tourism & horticulture ‘double growth engines’ for Ziro Valley: Tage Taki

Itanagar, Mar 3 (UNI) Spelling out that tourism and horticulture sectors were the ‘double growth engines’ that could propel the economy of Ziro Valley, local MLA, and Arunachal Pradesh Agriculture & Horticulture Minister Tage Taki on Sunday urged the youth to take advantage of the favourable landscape gifted by nature for their income generating start-ups and sustainability.
“Mother nature, coupled with the wisdom of our ancestors, has bestowed Ziro Plateau with a unique cultural landscape filled with immense potential in the fields of horticulture and tourism, as a result of which Ziro has become the highest producer of Kiwi fruit in Arunachal Pradesh and also earned the tag of tourist hotspot with lakhs of tourists visiting the valley annually.
Instead of hankering after shrinking Government jobs, our youth should focus on these key areas and be job givers rather than job seekers,” said Taki while inaugurating the ‘Pamu Yalang View Point’ atop the Dolo Mando Hills at Bamin-Michi village near Ziro on Sunday.
