PM Modi's 11-year tenure is 'Amritkal': Tripura CM Manik Saha

Tripura CM hails PM Modi's 11-year tenure as transformative 'Amritkal', citing poverty reduction, North East development, and governance reforms.

"Modi ji hai to sab mumkin hai – Tripura CM Manik Saha"

Agartala, June 10

Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha today described Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 11-year tenure as "Amritkal", attributing the period to significant strides in development, trust, and transformational change across India.

"Under the leadership of the Prime Minister, the state government is also prioritising development and innovation. During Prime Minister Modi's tenure, around 25 crore people in the country have risen above the poverty line," Saha said.

He was addressing a press conference at the Bharatiya Janata Party's state office in Krishnanagar, Agartala, held to mark the completion of 11 years of the BJP-led NDA government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Highlighting the Prime Minister's political journey, Dr. Saha said, "Before assuming leadership of the country, Narendra Modi served as the Chief Minister of Gujarat for more than 13 years and transformed it into a model state. After becoming Prime Minister in 2014, he took decisive steps for national development. Over these 11 years, the nation has steadily progressed. Today, people across India and the world recognise--'Modi ji hai to sab mumkin hai'. We have never seen a Prime Minister like him."

The Chief Minister further said that PM Modi's governance focuses on Seva Sushasan and Garib Kalyan.

"From the economically weaker sections to the most marginalised individuals, he has worked to address basic problems and uplift socio-economic conditions. The government's dedication to building a developed India under his leadership is truly commendable," he added.

Saha also spoke about the recent North East Investors Summit held in Delhi, attended by Prime Minister Modi.

"PM Modi clearly stated that India cannot be fully developed until the North East is developed. In the past, fear of terrorism kept people away from this region. But now, the Prime Minister has renamed the North East and Sikkim as Ashtalakshmi, giving special attention to this region's development. Under his leadership, around 11 to 12 agreements have been signed to restore peace and stability in the region," he said.

The Chief Minister also referred to the Prime Minister's monthly radio programme Mann Ki Baat, which is aired on the last Sunday of every month to connect directly with the public.

"Through Mann Ki Baat, the Prime Minister brings important national issues to the forefront. Before 2014, there were serious concerns about the country's future--corruption, scams, and nepotism were widespread, and Tripura was no exception. But now, we have moved past those issues," Saha concluded.

The press conference was attended by the BJP state president and MP Rajya Sabha Rajib Bhattacharjee, general secretary Bipin Debbarma, and Chief spokesperson Subrata Chakraborty.

PM Modi's focus on North East development is truly revolutionary! For decades this region was neglected, but now we see highways, digital connectivity and investment summits. As someone from Assam, I can see the change on ground. 🙏 #ActEastPolicy

While infrastructure has improved, I wish more attention was given to job creation. Many schemes sound good on paper but youth unemployment remains high. The government should focus more on manufacturing jobs rather than just praising past achievements.

Mann Ki Baat is such a brilliant initiative! My 80-year-old father in village Rajasthan waits every month to hear PM Modi speak. It makes common people feel connected to Delhi. Ujjwala scheme and toilets have changed rural lives. More power to our Pradhan Sevak!

Calling it 'Amritkal' is exaggeration. Yes, there's development but also rising prices, farmer protests and political polarization. We should acknowledge both achievements and shortcomings. A true leader would welcome constructive criticism.

The way PM Modi has given importance to Tripura and entire North East is remarkable! Earlier politicians only remembered us during elections. Now we have better roads, airports and internet. Hope this development continues 🤞

As a small businessman, I appreciate the GST simplification and ease of doing business reforms. Earlier it took weeks to get licenses, now many things happen online. But tax rates could still be lower for MSMEs. Overall positive changes in 11 years.
