    •  The West Bengal government on December 24 announced setting up of a non resident Indian (NRI) Cell and called on Indians living abroad to select suitable projects with local partners and pursue them for successful implementation
     
      Non-resident advisory cell

       Given the rapid changes in technologies, any government's success will increasingly be dependant on how it harnesses new technologies and emerging knowledge dynamics. In developing environments, technology choices are difficult to make, and often it is not clear how a combination of technologies might affect a region, particularly when they were developed somewhere else.

      The government of West Bengal plans to set up a "non-resident advisory cell" so that expertise from advanced markets could be integrated into the strategic planning and governance process of the State. Various mechanisms such as conference, leadership workshops on specific industries and technologies, and brainstorming sessions on critical issues could be used in a disciplined fashion to enrich the creation of governance processes meeting desired objectives. Through such processes, the government can access state-of-the-art thinking, expertise and capital from all over the world, while ensuring that the leadership of communities of each state is inclusive of its people worldwide. It is hope that the NRI Cell could work with the Government to Create the Centers of Excellence in various Universities for specific disciplines. The Chief Minister in consultation with the Chambers of Commerce will choose specific individuals to become members of the cell.
