Arunachal Pradesh, often referred to as 'The Land of the Rising Sun,' shares borders with Bhutan, China, and Myanmar, and its unique geographical location adds to its strategic importance. The state's journey from the North Eastern Frontier Agency (NEFA) to Union Territory in 1972, and finally achieving statehood on February 20, 1987, stands as a testament to its historical significance.

Similarly, Mizoram became the 23rd state of India, a step above Union Territory in federal autonomy, on February 20, 1987, hence, every year on February 20, to commemorate the official recognition of Mizoram as a full-fledged state, Mizoram celebrates its statehood day.

Good wishes are important, but I hope they translate into more tangible infrastructure projects and job creation on the ground. The potential of the Northeast is immense, but connectivity remains a big challenge.

It's heartening to see the PM's message. We often forget these regions in mainstream discourse. Their journey from NEFA and UT to full statehood is a proud chapter in our nation's story of integration.
