Addressing the meeting, Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation, Shri Amit Shah, said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, focused efforts have been made over the past 12 years to accelerate the development of the North East. He stated that a developed North East is now being built on the strong foundation laid during this period, and that all the states of the region have witnessed significant qualitative transformation over the last 12 years. Shri Shah said that, apart from Shri Narendra Modi, there has perhaps been no Prime Minister who has worked with such sustained focus and commitment towards the development of the North East.
Shri Amit Shah said that the foundation of development can only be laid on the pillars of good law and order and social harmony. He noted that, over the past 12 years, more than 12 peace accords have been signed to resolve various conflicts in the North East, and over 10,800 youth have been brought into the mainstream after laying down their arms. Shri Shah stated that the Modi Government has freed the North East from the scourge of insurgency. He said that the region has witnessed systematic infrastructure development over the last 12 years, and that improved rail, road, and air connectivity has significantly reduced the distance between Delhi and the North East. He further said that, the region’s infrastructure has grown by many times during the 12 years of the Modi Government. Shri Shah added that Prime Minister Modi has not only reduced the geographical distance between Delhi and the North East but has also bridged the emotional distance between the people of the region and the rest of the country
