CM Saha praising PM Modi is expected, but let's be honest—has the Swachh Bharat Mission actually reached the Northeast effectively? I've seen garbage piles in Agartala that haven't moved in months. Also, the Bru community ration cards issue needs speedy resolution; these are real humans with real needs, not just numbers.
As someone who moved from the US to India for work, I can see the difference Modi's policies have made. Digital India alone has transformed how we access government services. The infrastructure push across states like Tripura is exactly what the Northeast needs to catch up. Kudos to CM Saha for prioritizing these discussions.
Finally, some attention to Tripura! For too long, the Northeast has been ignored. Vande Bharat trains and double-line railways will connect our state better. But I want to see actual timelines—talk is cheap, show us completion dates for AIIMS and highway extensions.
12 years of Modi—some ups, some downs. Ayushman Bharat has genuinely helped my family afford healthcare. But the dairy industry development for Tripura? These small states need targeted schemes, not just national programs. Hope CM Saha pushes for more local employment in tech sector too. 🤔
Reading this as an Indian living abroad, I'm always amazed at how much Modi has done for India's global image. From climate summits to trade deals, India is taken seriously now. But internal connectivity like NE roads and railways is where the real work shows. Keep pushing, CM Saha.
