Development in Arunachal being speeded up, modern infrastructure being built: PM Modi

Development in Arunachal being speeded up, modern infrastructure being built: PM Modi

The Hindu
Sunday, February 20, 2022 09:33:49 AM UTC

PM Narendra Modi asserted that the Government is working with full force to make Arunachal Pradesh a major gateway to East Asia

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on February 20 said the Government has done unprecedented work to speed up development in Arunachal Pradesh and asserted that modern infrastructure is being built there considering its role from the national security perspective.

In his message to the people of Arunachal Pradesh on the 36th Statehood day and celebrations marking 50 years of its naming, PM Modi said that it has been his firm belief that eastern India and particularly the northeast will be the engine of the country’s development in the 21st century.

He asserted that the Government is working with full force to make Arunachal Pradesh a major gateway to East Asia.

“I am satisfied that the Government is justifying the confidence reposed by you on us under young Chief Minister Pema Khandu’s leadership. Your faith encourages the double engine Government to work harder and with more strength to make efforts,” Mr. Modi said addressing the people of the State via videoconference.

This path of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishvaas aur Sabka Prayas’ will ensure a better future for Arunachal, Mr. Modi said.

“With this spirit, unprecedented work has been done to speed up the development of Arunachal in the last seven years. Comprehensive work on connectivity and power infrastructure is making life and business easy in Arunachal,” he said.

Along with Itanagar, connecting all the capitals in the Northeast by rail has been our priority, the Prime Minister asserted.
