Guwahati, Dec 12: Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership. Insurgency has ceased to exist in Assam, and as a result, there is peace all along our boundary with Assam.
Addressing a huge gathering of devotees from West Kameng, Tawang, and Bhutan, Khandu expressed gratitude to the Almighty for being able to attend the third celebration of the festival at Balemu for the second time.
He appreciated all the MLAs of West Kameng and Tawang districts for responding positively to his appeal for generous contributions to the construction and development of the monastery that he inaugurated earlier in the day.
Khandu, who inaugurated the Mindrol Wang Thri Khang Zang Gatsal, or the Dharma Teaching Stage of the monastery, on behalf of all Mon people, expressed gratitude to Thegtse Rinpoche for reviving the lost religious glory of Amartala (Balemu) by initiating the opening of the study centre for the preservation of Buddhist culture. Amartala (Balemu) is a place of great religious significance.
“We the Mon people, have been following Buddhism for centuries. It is our culture. And it is our duty to preserve this culture for posterity and maintain our indigenous identity,” he advocated.
“We have proposed to develop all entry points to our state, including Balemu and Bhalukpong in West Kameng district, with state-of-the-art infrastructure and facilities to welcome tourists and give them a feeling of awe for the treasure trove that is waiting for them further into Arunachal Pradesh,” he revealed.
