He further said that the North East Police Cell has been set up in Delhi Police for the welfare of the North East people. He said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the only leader who cares for the tribal people. He further said that the Government has declared the birthday of Birsa Munda as Bharat Janjativa Gauva Diwas in honour of all tribal freedom fighters.

Referring to the terror attack by Hamas on Israel, he said that the BJP condemns all forms of terrorism.

Mr Rijiju assured that Mizoram will be one of the most prosperous state in the country. He expressed the hope that the North East will become the most vibrant and economic hub under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

 Meanwhile, with just a week away from the polling day, campaigning is at its peak with all political parties and independent candidates reaching out to woo the voters.
