Peace has returned to NE in last ten years: Amit Shah

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday emphasized the transformative changes in India's North Eastern region over the last decade, asserting that peace has been restored in the region in last ten years and the focus must now shift to building an industrial ecosystem.

Shah was addressing the 72nd North Eastern Council (NEC) Plenary in Agartala, Tripura, attended by key leaders, including governors and chief ministers of the eight North-Eastern states.

"Peace has returned to the North-East in the last ten years, marking the most significant development in the region," Shah remarked.

Highlighting the Centre's efforts, he noted that the NDA government, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, has signed over 20 peace accords, substantially reducing militancy and creating a conducive environment for progress.
