Good to see all CMs coming together under one roof. 🙌 The PM's vision of Viksit Bharat by 2047 needs collective effort. Tripura CM highlighting local achievements shows how states are contributing to national progress. Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas is real!
While 100% attendance is impressive, I hope these are not just photo ops. We need concrete outcomes - especially for states like Tripura that face unique challenges in infrastructure and connectivity. The talk about 'transparent government' is good, but let's see tangible results on the ground.
Cooperative federalism at its best! 😊 When all states participate, it shows unity. The PM completed 12 years and the development trajectory is clear. Proud moment for Tripura to get national recognition for their initiatives!
I appreciate the focus on Viksit Bharat, but let's not forget that development should be inclusive. Smaller states like Tripura often struggle with limited resources. Hope the Centre provides adequate support. 100% attendance is symbolic, but funding commitments matter more.
This is what democracy looks like - all CMs under one roof discussing national progress. The PM's vision is clear and the states are on board. 2047 is achievable with this kind of unity! 🇮🇳
