Mizoram is one of the five states undergoing assembly elections. Polls will be held in Mizoram on November 7 and the counting of votes will be done on December 3.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday, while addressing the people of Mizoram via video conference, highlighted that the BJP-led NDA government "bridged the gap" between northeastern states and Delhi by addressing their needs and aspirations.
"Before 2014, people perceived the northeastern states, such as Mizoram, as distant from Delhi both physically and psychologically. The BJP recognized this sense of distance and, after coming into power as part of the NDA government in 2014, made it a priority to bridge this gap by addressing the aspirations and needs of the northeastern states," PM Modi said during the video conference.
He further outlined that Mizoram has the potential to become a global tourist hub.
