Arunachal Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Chowna Mein has declared that the Northeast is on track to becoming the growth engine of the 21st century, citing massive infrastructure development, reduced insurgency, and economic progress under the BJP-led government.
🔴 Key Highlights:
- The Northeast, once neglected, has seen rapid development since 2014, with PM Modi’s Act East, Act Fast, and Act First policies driving progress.
- Insurgency has declined significantly, with a 71% drop in violent incidents and an 86% reduction in civilian casualties.
- Over 10,500 insurgents have surrendered, contributing to lasting peace in the region.
- Infrastructure boom—more than 5,000 km of national highways are under construction, along with ten new greenfield airports.
- State-specific projects—Arunachal Pradesh has completed the 1,390-km Trans Arunachal Highway, and ₹3,000 crore has been earmarked for rural road development.
📢 Chowna Mein’s Statement:
“The Congress framed the Look East Policy but didn’t implement it. PM Modi transformed the concept through Act East, Act Fast, and Act First, ensuring rapid and inclusive development in the Northeast.”
⚠️ Strategic Impact:
- The Northeast’s transformation strengthens India’s connectivity with Southeast Asia, boosting trade and tourism.
- Improved infrastructure and reduced insurgency make the region more attractive for investment and economic expansion.
