Expressing gratitude to Sarma for attending the Mopin festival in Arunachal Pradesh, Khandu said that his (Sarma\u2019s) presence at Aalo amidst thousands of Galos in a sea of white exemplifies his love for the sister state and its people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince Modiji became the Prime Minister and Himantaji became chief minister of Assam, the entire Northeast has witnessed a complete change in governance and pace of development. Assam as a state plays a significant role in the region. Whatever happens in Assam, impacts us all,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Khandu credited Himanta for bringing peace in the region, which, he said, is the only way to development. He said that insurgency, which affected Assam for decades, impacting Arunachal Pradesh that shares a long inter-state boundary with Assam, is almost finished due to Himanta\u2019s efforts and blessings of the Prime Minister and the Home Minister.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith insurgency gone, we are all witness to the tremendous developmental works going on not only in Assam but in all the northeastern states,\u201d Khandu observed.<\/p>\n<div style=\"display:none;\" data-ga-impression=\"Events_widget_$pagename#Impression#url\" class=\"liveEventMain_widget custom_ad\">\n<div class=\"topContain\">\n<div class=\"imgBox\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"logoTitle\">Live Events<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--\/live_events_widget.cms?pagename=articlepotime:1--><br \/>He said that the \u2018Advantage Assam\u2019 initiative of the Assam Government under Himanta will be a game changer for the region.\u201cAs Assam is being portrayed as an investment hub, other states of the region will also benefit as investors would like to expand their businesses in the region,\u201d Khandu said.He further mentioned that the historic \u2018<a ref=\"dofollow\" data-ga-onclick=\"Inarticle articleshow link click#News#href\" href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/topic\/namsai-declaration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Namsai Declaration<\/a>\u2019 of July 15, 2022 to resolve the decades old inter-state boundary dispute between Assam and Arunachal Pradesh could be possible only due to the proactive role of the Assam Chief Minister.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith Himantaji\u2019s cooperation almost all boundary issues have been resolved except for a few pockets, where committees from both the states will revisit. We are optimistic that these will too be resolved soon,\u201d Khandu added.<\/p>\n<p>Sarma said, &#8220;Arunachal Pradesh is not just a state; it is a living, breathing canvas of cultural magnificence. It is a land where tradition and modernity coexist harmoniously. In this state natural beauty is as mesmerizing as the warmth of its people. Here every festival, dance and dish tells a story of heritage and pride and as we celebrate the essence of Arunachal Pradesh, let us cherish and honour the incredible diversity that makes Arunachal Pradesh and our country extraordinary&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Sarma said that once this neglected region and under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi now stands at the cusp of historic transformation. For decades, inadequate infrastructure and investment, especially in connectivity, had hindered the region&#8217;s growth, leaving it economically backward and geographically isolated. However, with the Prime Minister&#8217;s visionary initiatives like &#8216;<a ref=\"dofollow\" data-ga-onclick=\"Inarticle articleshow link click#News#href\" href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/topic\/transformation-through-transportation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Transformation through Transportation<\/a>&#8216; and &#8216;<a ref=\"dofollow\" data-ga-onclick=\"Inarticle articleshow link click#News#href\" href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/topic\/act-east-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Act East Policy<\/a>&#8216;, the Northeast has witnessed unprecedented development in connectivity, infrastructure and economic integration. This paradigm shift has unlocked the region&#8217;s vast potential, positioning it not as a remote periphery, but as the gateway to the fastest-growing economies of Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n<p>He said that under the present dispensation in Assam and Arunachal Pradesh the border disputes between the two states will be resolved completely. He also said that considering Dr. Bhupen Hazarika&#8217;s profound love and affection for Arunachal Pradesh and vice versa, the centenary celebrations of the birth anniversary of the &#8216;Bard of the Brahmaputra&#8217; in 2026 along with Assam will be celebrated in Arunachal Pradesh as well.<br \/><!--\/article_liveblog.cms?msid=105115637&pos=botpotime:88--><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/news\/india\/northeast-has-changed-for-the-better-since-pm-modi-took-charge-says-arunachal-pradesh-cm-khandu\/articleshow\/120014601.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guwahati: Arunachal Pradesh chief minister Pema Khandu said that insurgency, which affected Assam for decades, impacting Arunachal Pradesh that shares a long inter-state boundary with Assam, is almost finished due to Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma\u2019s efforts and blessings of the Prime Minister and the Home Minister.
