Shillong, Feb 8: The North Eastern Council (NEC) has proposed to fund a project worth over Rs 10 crore to give a facelift to Iewduh, one of the oldest traditional market in the Northeast.
The outgoing NEC secretary, Moses Chalai told reporters here that there was a need to improve and beautify the Iewduh market.
