'Every person of Arunachal is Modi's family'

During this, PM Modi also targeted the India alliance of opposition parties. He said that on one hand he is working for building a developed India and for a better future for the youth, while on the other hand the dynastic leaders of the India Alliance are attacking him. PM said that opposition leaders are asking who is Modi's family. Listen with open ears, every person of Arunachal is Modi's family. Everyone living here is saying that they are Modi's family. The PM said that these family members only see the benefit of their own family.

He said that while BJP is working for the development of the country, everyone knows what work Congress and India Alliance is doing. Accusing the Congress of scam, the PM said that when modern infrastructure should have been built on the country's borders, the Congress government was busy in scams and playing with the country's security.

‘Modi’s guarantee is visible in Arunachal’

Praising the BJP government, the PM said that what Modi's guarantee is is clearly visible in Arunachal. He said that the people of the entire state are seeing how Modi's guarantee is working. The PM said that today the Northeast is going to become a strong link in India's trade, tourism and other relations with South Asia and East Asia.

‘People got permanent houses and water facilities’

PM said that 35 thousand poor families of Arunachal Pradesh have got their own permanent houses. Thousands of families have got tap water connections. The PM said that today many projects related to promoting connectivity in the North-East have been inaugurated. Further, the PM said that his government had especially started 'Mission Palm Oil' keeping the North-East in mind. Under this mission, the first oil mill has been inaugurated today. Which will not only make India self-reliant in the matter of edible oil but will also increase the income of the farmers here.

The PM said that today projects worth more than Rs 55,000 crore have been inaugurated or the foundation stone laid simultaneously in the state. The national celebration of India from a developed state to a developed one is continuing at a fast pace across the country. PM said that our vision for the development of the North-East has been that of Ashtalakshmi. He said that the amount of investment made in the last five years on the development of the North-East is almost 4 times more than the work done by the Congress government.
