The cabinet in the Indian state of Assam recently approved the Assam Logistics and Warehousing Policy, 2025, to streamline supply chains, boost private sector participation and transform the state into a major logistics hub in the Northeast.

It also cleared the transfer of a huge patch of land in Silchar to the Airports Authority of India for constructing a greenfield airport. The proposal will now move to the central cabinet for approval, media outlets reported from the state.

Key components of the policy include development of integrated logistics parks and modern warehousing clusters; promotion of multimodal transport systems, including road, rail, air and waterway; streamlined clearances and single-window facilitation for investors; and incentives for private players to build cold chains, storage facilities and distribution centres.
