Narenda Modi woos Northeast

Gujarat Chief Minister and BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi made a strong pitch for his party in the Northeast region in Imphal this past week. He slammed the Congress for the death of an Arunachal Pradesh youth from an alleged racial attack in New Delhi and promised development and jobs for the region saying that a state like Manipur can also be an IT hub.

He said the Northeast corner of a house is important and so is the region for the nation and it should be taken care of.

He promised to complete the National Highway 53 which is for years lying unattended. "What is happening. Do you think they can do it? No, we will do it," said Modi.

Speaking on the death of Arunachal boy Nido Taniam in Delhi from beatings by shopkeepers for his hair style and Northeast origin, Modi called it national shame and said: "It is a sad incident. I offer my prayer for the boy, his parents and family. I assure you that the whole nation is with you."

He said the incident is owing to misgovernance in Delhi and hoped that instead of blame game there should be justice.

He said while five years is enough to change the world the PM who represented the NE in Parliament as Rajya Sabha member for decades have not done anything.

"You gave the Congress 60 years but 'Aapka Bhala Hua'? 60 years were ruined now please give us 60 months," said Modi seeking the support of the NE people.

"Extremism and infiltration threats. Manipur has seen bad governance of Congress. Drug trafficking is a problem," said Modi.

"Because of lack of attention and lack of governance, the NE fell into hands of divisive forces," said Modi.
