Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared exciting news about the future of Northeast India during the Ashtalakshmi Mahotsav event in Delhi on Friday. He believes cities like Guwahati, Agartala, Imphal, and Itanagar will become important symbols of growth and power in the coming years. Modi stated, “The future belongs to Eastern India, especially the Northeast,” emphasizing that this century is becoming more about the East.
He talked about how the government has worked hard over the last decade to strengthen connections with the Northeast. Union ministers made around 700 visits to this region over the past ten years. Modi explained that they are focusing on three key areas: emotions, the economy, and ecology, to help the Northeast develop.
The Prime Minister also pointed out that the region was often ignored in the past by previous governments. He accused them of making development decisions based on how many votes the Northeast states could provide. Because these states had fewer seats in government, they did not get the attention they deserved. Modi praised the rich culture and strong people of the Northeast, saying, “With its vibrant culture and dynamic people, the Northeast holds immense potential to help India grow.”
He concluded by saying that events like the Ashtalakshmi Mahotsav will help make the Northeast a central hub of progress and brightness for years to come.
