He claimed that remarkable changes in almost all the fields are now witnessed in the state under the BJP-led coalition government under the leadership Chief Minister N Biren.

Nadda said he remembered the ‘woeful state of condition’ of Manipur before the BJP came to power in the state and stated, “Development paces accelerated in the state after the BJP government in the state.” “The state is now free from all shortages of bandhs, blockades and strikes and it has helped in accelerating the development pace in the state,” he added. “Not only had the people but traders suffered a lot due to poor connectivity. But, it has been a thing of the past as works for improvement of road connectivity, bridges and railways have started in full swing,” he said.

Stating that he had come to highlight the report card of the government he said, “I am sure BJP will return to power again after the elections.”
