The PM said that during the last decade, his government tried to reduce the feeling among people about the gap of Delhi and ‘Dil’ with the Northeast. Union ministers made 700 visits to the Northeast in the last decade and the government was connecting the region with the “trinity of emotion, economy and ecology,” he said.“In the last decade, we have seen a wonderful journey of the development of the Northeast but it was not easy. We have taken every possible step to connect the northeastern states with India’s growth story,” he said.“For a long time, we have seen how development was weighed against votes. Northeastern states had fewer votes and seats, so previous governments did not pay attention to the development of the region,” he said.Modi said he believes the coming days are of eastern India and the Northeast. Like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai and Bengaluru, cities of the region such as Guwahati, Shillong, Imphal, Itanagar and Aizawl will be new beacons of growth, the PM said.
