NE WILL BE INDIA’S GROWTH HUB: SHAH

-

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has identified the Northeast region as India's "Growth Hub".

Addressing a gathering in Nagaon district's Batadrava Than, Shah said the Modi government has already started work to make the region as the growth engine of India.

"To take the Northeast developmen­t in a mission mode, the Prime Minister had visited the region 35 times in the past five years. The Congress leaders and ministers visited Assam only during the election time," the senior BJP leader said.

"Under PM Modi's stewardshi­p, a new era of developmen­t has started in Assam and the Northeast region. Entire Northeast region is transformi­ng. Northeast India will emerge as the highest contributo­r in the GDP of India," said Shah.

Urging the people to reinstall the BJP government for the second time, Shah promised that his party's vision is to make Assam an infiltrati­on free, flood free, corruption free, violence free, agitation free and number one state in India.
