Modi seeks support for BJP from ‘family’ in Mizoram

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday sought the support from the “warm” people of Mizoram who were “like my family members” for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on November 7, the day when a maximum of 8,51,895 voters in the State are scheduled to choose 40 representatives for five years.

In a video message for the people of the poll-bound State, the Prime Minister said the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government at the Centre had been trying relentlessly to reduce the psychological and physical distance between New Delhi and the northeast since 2014.

“We have given priority to realising your dreams and fulfilling your needs. In the last nine years, I have visited the northeast 60 times and the BJP has brought Delhi to the doorsteps of the people of the region,” he said, underlining his party’s commitment to building a “marvellous Mizoram”.
