Attacking the grand-old party, Amit Shah said, “Congress had made this beautiful N-East, the land of violence, anarchy and strikes. PM Modi brought it back on the path of peace & progress.”

After facing countless difficulties, the BJP karyakartas with their sacrifice and hard work sowed the seed of BJP’s growth in the Northeast. Today, that seed has become a huge tree under the leadership of PM Modi, he said.  

Reiterating PM @narendramodi’s resolve of a Drug-Free India, today will chair a meeting with the CMs & DGs of all North-eastern states to review issues related to drug trafficking, Shah further said.
