New Delhi, Mar 14 (PTI) The government on Tuesday decided to set up a committee of secretaries to fast-track implementation of infrastructure projects along the border with China, in a move that came amid the 34-month-long border row in eastern Ladakh.
The decision was taken at a high-level meeting chaired by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh after reviewing the progress in construction of various infrastructure projects on the northern border areas.
In his remarks, Singh called for expediting all pending projects on "top priority", stating that the "whole of nation" approach should be adopted in matters of national security, the defence ministry said.
