Northeast's Transformation: From Isolation to Integration

Union Home Minister Amit Shah praised the Bharatiya Janata Party for bridging the gap between Northeast India and the rest of the country, claiming that it is the greatest achievement of the party. Addressing a public rally in Assam, Shah said the BJP had worked towards the development of the region with an ever-closer integration with mainstream India. He drew attention to infrastructure projects, connectivity, and a renewed focus on the Northeast's cultural and economic potentials. Shah also complimented Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision for the region and the so-called "Act East Policy" of the government. The statement of the Home Minister reinforces the ongoing thrust by the BJP on the Northeast as one of the central areas for national development and integration.
