\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Union Minister for Shipping, Ports, Waterways and Ayush Sarbananda Sonowal on Thursday asserted that eight years of\u00a0 Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government has boosted India\u2019s social welfare, economic growth and ease of living of its citizens through good governance.\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Interacting with the beneficiaries of Prime Minister\u2019s Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY) and Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), the Union Minister said that the people of the country are realising the long aspired goals of social welfare due to the Prime Minister’s dynamic leadership.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0”The promise of change was delivered through peace agreements, revolutionary infrastructure development and most importantly adhering to the importance\u00a0and role of the North East in the cause of nation building. <\/span><\/p>\n

We must take this wonderful opportunity provided by Modiji and give wings to our hopes and dreams for a peaceful, prosperous and progressive\u00a0 Assam and Northeast\u201d, he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Attacking the Congress for their alleged misgovernance, Sonowal said, \u201cWe must not forget the fragile atmosphere after six decades of dynastic politics of the Congress and how the North East and Assam suffered tremendously under their successive governments.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Our aspirations to be part of the national conscience was possible when Modiji took special interest in the Northeast and referred to it as the Ashtalakshmi and the new growth engine of India.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0In order to improve connectivity, 28 projects of air connectivity were completed between 2016-17 and 2021-22 while 15 ongoing projects will be completed by March, 2023.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0The UDAN scheme resulted in the development of 15 operational airports while there were\u00a0only nine in 2014, he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0The Krishi Udaan scheme has helped\u00a0 farmers to transport\u00a0 agri produce to the international market with 1.92 lakh metric tonnes of agricultural produce being transported nationally and abroad through this scheme.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 The entire railway network was converted into broad gauge only during\u00a0the last eight years with 237 projects completed so far.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Over 3,099 km of roads were developed in the Northeast in the last five years while Assam will soon have India\u2019s first Multi Modal Logistic Park at Jogighopa.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 ”We are also working to build our economic gateway by developing the Sittwe port and the Kaladan Multi Modal Transit Transport Projects while work is going on the India-Myanmar-Thailand trilateral Highway which will give a huge boost to the Northeast region”, Sonowal added.<\/span><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
