Bamang Felix, Minister for RWD said that one of the visionary gifts to the nation by Vajpayee is PMGSY, due to which now the villagers enjoys good roads. Felix also highlighted major policies of which the present India is enjoying the fruits.

He said that Vajpayee was a multifaceted personality who was soft in nature but tough when situation demanded.

Health and Family Welfare Minister Alo Libang said that four decades as Parliamentarian speaks about the love and respect people had about this great leader.

“The greatest tribute to him will be to emulate his principles and ideology. He has made himself immortal by his deeds,” the minister said.

Mahesh Chai, Minister for Sports and Youth Affairs said that many flagship programmes initiated by Vajpayee are so successful that they are still followed.

Ministers Nabam Rebia and Honchum Ngandam and MLAs Wanglin Lowangdong, Nabam Tuki, Lombo Tayeng, Tanga Byaling, Takam Pario, Tapang Taloh, Thangwang Wangham, Rajesh Tacho, Tesam Pongte, Pani Taram, Paknga Bage, Kento Rina and Japu Deru also participated in obituary reference.
