Abstract:
In view of the increased building construction activities and the various ambitious projects
envisaged by the central/State Government in the 10th Plan, the demand for bricks will increase
manifold in the coming years. A significant change is taking place in the building habits of the
region, i.e. more emphasis is given on R.C.C. construction rather than traditional Assam Type
houses. With more major construction projects coming up in the NE Region, the demand for
bricks is registering a substantial increase. Therefore, there is good scope for brick plants in this
part of the country.
