This will be the second election rally of PM Modi in Arunachal Pradesh within a week. Last Saturday, Modi addressed an election rally at Aalo in Arunachal Pradesh.
Launching a scathing attack on the Congress in his Aalo rally, Modi said the party was never happy about any progress that the country made.
Speaking to an electrified gathering reverberating ‘Modi, Modi’, the PM thanked the people of Arunachal Pradesh for embracing the BJP and showing support to their governance. “It is in Arunachal Pradesh where the lotus first bloomed,” said Modi with reference to the BJP’s stint in Arunachal.
Modi had also addressed poll rallies at Moran and Gohpur in Assam last Saturday wherein he literally brewed up a saffron storm. Both Moran and Gohpur are dotted with tea gardens.
