Title: Meghalaya CM lays foundation for ₹24.27 crore Malki Market redevelopment
Press Release Number:
16/09/2026
Description:
The Hon'ble Chief Minister said the allocation for Malki Market is among the highest for any market project in the state, reflecting the area's potential to emerge as an important economic hub benefiting Malki and surrounding localities.
The Chief Minister also outlined other major infrastructure projects planned for the area. Work has begun to develop Barik Point into an important urban hub, while the government is at an advanced stage of developing a four-lane road from Yojana Bhawan to Anjalee Point, Rhino Point and Civil Hospital to ease traffic congestion.
He said around 75 per cent of the civil work on the New Secretariat at Umsawli has been completed and the government expects to shift there next year. Following the relocation, the existing Secretariat area is proposed to be redeveloped with wider roads, pedestrian spaces and green areas.
Sangma said these projects could lead to a major transformation of the Malki and adjoining areas over the next two to three years
