PM Modi's road show in Shillong: Said- Some people say- Modi will dig your grave, the country is saying- Modi your lotus will blossom

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday attended election rallies in Nagaland and Meghalaya. The Prime Minister said in Meghalaya's Shillong that some people, who have been rejected by the country, who have drowned in the pit of despair... nowadays they chant rosary and are saying that Modi will dig your grave. But the country is saying, every corner of the country is saying – Modi, your lotus will bloom.

The PM said- The way you have done a wonderful and lively roadshow today... this love of yours, this blessing of yours... I will repay this debt of yours. I will repay the debt of your love and blessings by developing Meghalaya, and speeding up your welfare work. I will not let this love of yours go in vain.

The Prime Minister said that when I think of Meghalaya, I think of talented people, vibrant traditions, and amazing natural beauty. The music of Meghalaya is alive. Have a passion for football. There is creativity in every corner of Meghalaya.

Modi said – Lotus is blooming in Meghalaya

The Prime Minister said – BJP is visible everywhere in Meghalaya. Be it a mountainous or plain area... be it a village or city, lotus is seen blooming everywhere. Meghalaya today wants a government with people first instead of family, so today 'lotus flower' has become synonymous with the strength, peace, and stability of Meghalaya.

Meghalaya's interests were never given priority... You were divided on small issues. This politics has done you a lot of harm... It has done a lot of harm to the youth here. After Shillong, the Prime Minister will address an election rally in Tura.

Said in Dimapur- Congress had made North-East an ATM

Earlier, the Prime Minister held a meeting at Dimapur in Nagaland. In his address here, he fiercely attacked the policies of the previous Congress government regarding the Northeast. He said- Congress had considered North-East as ATM. The government's money did not reach the public but reached the coffers of corrupt parties.

He said that Congress ran the government of Nagaland with remote control. From Delhi to Dimapur, they had given priority to familyism, but our government has changed the thinking of the Delhi government for the entire Northeast. NDA has also got the opportunity to give the first woman Rajya Sabha MP to Nagaland.

Modi said – We considered 8 states of North-East as Ashtalakshmi

Like the Congress, we do not consider the 8 states of the Northeast as ATMs but as 'Ashta Lakshmi'. It is our effort that the distance of the heart should also be removed and the distance from Delhi should also be reduced. I have come here dozens of times in the last 9 years.

The country does not run by distrusting its people. The country runs by respecting its people and solving their problems. Earlier, where the politics of divide used to run in the Northeast, we have converted it into divine. Our mantra for Nagaland is Peace, Progress, and Prosperity.
