Shri Shah said that there would hardly be any other state which would have seen different types of bloody agitations running for so long and even after thousands of people were martyred, nothing was achieved.

Shri Shah said that the different types of dialects, culture, languages, songs, and music and variety of cuisines of the entire North-East are not only a jewel of the North-East but of India as well.
The Union Home Minister said that for the first time since Independence, under the leadership of Shri Narendra Modi, 5 cabinet ministers have been included from the Northeast, which proves where the North East stands in the priority of our government and Shri Narendra Modi. Shri Shah also said that the participation of the people of North-East should increase in the development of the country. Shri Shah said that Shri Narendra Modi has started the development journey of the entire North-East and in 6-and-a-half years Modi Ji himself came here 35 times. Shri Shah said that not a single fortnight has gone in which a minister has not visited the North-East in every 15 days.
Shri Amit Shah said that under the leadership of Shri Narendra Modi, 21 medical colleges are being set up in the state by the Government of Assam, which is a big achievement when compared to the population ratio in other states of the country. Shri Shah said that the entire North-East would be benefited from the establishment of a cancer hospital in Assam. The cancer research papers prepared by the students here will be referred across the country and abroad. Shri Shah said that Tamulpur Medical College is being set up for the benefit of the people.
No one made a demand for this medical college, in fact, it is under the leadership of Shri Narendra Modi that the Government of India took the initiative to establish this college. Shri Shah said that the entire agreement signed with Bodoland will be implemented before 2024 and all the promises made with Bodoland will be fulfilled by the 75thyear of Independence. He said that Several agreements reached by the previous governments were lying in closed boxes, on which the dust had settled, during the tenure of Shri Narendra Modi, the agreement with Bodoland was reached and it has been implemented up to 90 percent. Under the Bru-Reang agreement, the work of giving land in 9 out of 14 places has been completed and before 2022, more than 35,000 Bru families will get land for the first time after 35 years, food grains, ₹ 4,500 pensions, and also honor.
Shri Amit Shah said that in the coming times, the work related to the Karbi Accord and laying down of arms by two groups of Tripura is being completed and before 2024, not only Assam but the entire North-East will move away from terrorism and agitation and walk on the path of development.
