Dibrugarh, April 15: The Union Minister of Ports, Shipping and Waterways and Ayush, Sarbananda Sonowal addressed multiple public meetings at New Rangagarha regional playground in Gatang, Lakhipathar and Barekuri in Makum LAC area to garner support for upcoming election.
Sonowal prayed at the Panitola Bornaamghar and took part in a Padyatra from Borbil Hanuman Mandir to Gandhi Maidan in Digboi. Sonowal was accompanied by Rameswar Teli, Union Minister of State for Petroleum & Natural Gas, Ponakan Baruan, MLA, Chabua Pulak Gohain, General Secretary, BJP Assam Suren Phukan, MLA, Digboi, Bolin Chetia, MLA, Makum among others who took part in the Padyatra.
Addressing the people Sonowal said, “from the 60s, the youth of Assam has borne a lot, the Assamese people, must not forget the brutal atrocities committed at the behest of the Congress governments. Anyone aligning with Congress must remember that people could not celebrate Bihu due to violence, insurgency, overall law and order issues that spiralled out of hand during the Congress governments. With no sincere attempt to control it, people suffered a great deal during these years. It’s difficult to articulate the dreadful conditions they fostered in the region. Assam felt like a living nightmare, with reports of Assamese youth dying tragically rampant, leaving the citizens in a state of despair. Those, rely on the support of Congress, to do their politics, should not forgot that the party betrayed people of everything for nearly six decades. He reaffirmed his faith on voters and said people will respond to this on 19th April as the opposition heads towards becoming a zero.”
He further stated that Narendra Modi is the most dynamic Prime Minister of India. Sarbananda Sonowal said, “since 2014, when Narendra Modi took charge as the Prime Minister of India, he took efforts to bring peace in the region. Today, we live in a peaceful environment, largely due to the painstaking effort of Narendra Modi. It is unimaginable that Assam could be chosen for a Semiconductor hub until a few years ago due to apathy, ignorance towards the development of the region. But, with more than 60 visits to the region as the Prime Minister since 2014, which is a record in itself, Modi made it a mission to make Assam along with the North-east as the Growth Engine of India’s next economic surge. Today, Modi has given a reason to celebrate to all of us as the sustained peace, attained under his government, has provided everyone to celebrate ‘Bohag Bihu’ without any fear of inhibition, trepidation or agitation.”
Sarbananda Sonowal, speaking to the first time voters, assured them of a secure future under their government. Sonowal emphasised Modi’s commitment to ensure employment for the upcoming voters. Under BJP rule, youth unemployment would be addressed comprehensively, with opportunities not only in the public sector but also in private enterprises. Gone are the days where securing a job relied solely on connections; now, merit and skill will prevail, ensuring a fulfilling life for all.
