These elections are between those that neglected the needs and aspirations of the people of Arunachal for decades or those that have worked tirelessly since 2014 to develop Arunachal: PM Modi in Pasighat
The people know well how to differentiate between the falsehood of Congress and the honest efforts of the BJP and so they will not repose their trust in such deceptive politicians: Prime Minister Modi
The NDA government is continuously working to ensure strong and equitable development for the North-East at par with other regions of the country and aim to make Arunachal Pradesh the gateway to East Asia: PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed his first rally for the day in Pasighat in the North-Eastern state of Arunachal Pradesh today.

Highlighting the milestones achieved by his government since assuming power in 2014, PM Modi said, “It was after 7 decades of independence that we were able to provide electricity to each village in Arunachal Pradesh and are rapidly moving towards building a solid connectivity network in the state to fulfill our goal of ‘Transport to Transformation’ and make Arunachal Pradesh the gateway to East Asia.

Reminding his supporters about the significance of the upcoming elections, Prime Minister Modi asserted, “The voters have to choose between those that only make hollow promises or those that actually fulfill them in the coming elections, these elections are between those that neglected the needs and aspirations of the people of Arunachal for decades or those that have worked tirelessly since the last five years to develop Arunachal and broadly the North-East.”

Taking on the Opposition parties, especially the Congress for making only making false promises without making any efforts to fulfill them, Prime Minister Modi said that the people are well-aware of the hollowness of election promises made by the Congress as it has time and again betrayed the people’s faith in them and added, “We did not promise that we will build a toilet for every household in our campaigning but we did it, neither did we promise the farmers that we will provide them financial assistance annually through the PM-KISAN Yojana but we have done it.

The people know well how to differentiate between the falsehood of Congress and the honest efforts of the BJP and so they will not repose their trust in such deceptive politicians.”

The project reflects the vision of the Prime Minister to develop next-generation infrastructure that combines high-speed connectivity with environmental sustainability and improved quality of life for citizens.
