Developmental theories have two strategies: development via abundance of infrastructure and vice versa. It is theoretically favourable that infrastructure leads to development in economic sectors. However, in pragmatic terms, policies seem to go ahead of infrastructural development. This paper checks the possibility of infrastructural development which follows the implementation of border trade in landlocked region (North East Region of India). ​
