ZIRO-  Chief Minister Pema Khandu today said that the BJP-led central government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi never looks at Arunachal Pradesh from a political point of view.

Speaking at a public meeting at Ziro in Lower Subansiri district, Khandu quoted from Modi’s March 9th speech at Itanagar wherein the Prime Minister mentioned that the government’s outlook towards North Eastern states is never based on the Party’s strength in the Parliament.

“We contribute only two MPs to the Lok Sabha and only one to Rajya Sabha but this number factor has been overlooked by Modi and since day one has been supporting the state in its accelerated development on all fronts,” Khandu said.

He called upon the people to look around themselves with open mind and witness for themselves the development in Arunachal has witnessed since 2014 when Narendra Modi for the first time became the prime minister.

“Earlier governments at the Centre always considered the North East unimportant as politically the states here do not contribute much in government formation at Delhi. That’s the only reason for the underdevelopment of North-Eastern states. We are lucky that Narendra Modi came to power in 2014 and since then changed the fate of these states,” he observed.

On behalf of the people of the state, Khandu extended gratitude to the prime minister for announcing developmental projects worth Rs 55000 crore for the North East from Itanagar. He informed that of these 55000 crore Arunachal Pradesh alone gets a whopping Rs 41000 crore worth projects.

Asserting that it’s time to express our gratitude and say ‘thanks’ to Modi, Khandu said the best and only way to do so is by supporting and voting for the BJP candidates in the upcoming Lok Sabha as well as Assembly elections.

Earlier in the day, Khandu visited the under-construction site of India’s first Integrated Aqua Museum under construction at Tarin here. The project under Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana is expected to revolutionize the state’s fisheries sector and boost livelihoods by providing additional income sources to farmers.

Khandu also launched an AI-based telehealth facility at Gyati Takka General Hospital here. This pilot project being implemented in Ziro and Tawang will revolutionize healthcare delivery in the region.
