3:13 pm: The situation in Assam is worse than Nagaland. Why did the government not do anything about Assam tourism? - Modi

3:12 pm: Even an MP would have done more for Assam than the PM has done. People of Assam have a right to question the PM and he needs to answer why he hasn`t done anything.

12:24 pm: More than 6.5 lakh people are registered at employment exchange but only 100 people have got jobs. Why is Congress playing with the future of Manipuri youth? - Modi

12:23 pm: Much-hyped rural employment guarantee scheme MNREGA failed in Manipur. Panchayati system is not working here. No job creation as well - Modi

12:22 pm: Development and administration have totally collapsed here. The national capital region where the PM sits also has no electricity and water: Narendra Modi

12:21 pm: Villages, churches have gone to our neighbouring country. Without taking approvals from Parliament, Manipur Chief Minister Okram Ibobi Singh signed paper changing boundary with Myanmar - Modi

12:20 pm: The State and Central government have not taken the issues of national security seriously. A huge part of Indian territory left off in Myanmar; it is anti-national and anti-people - Modi

12:08 pm: Even pregnant women have been killed in encounters - Modi

12:07 pm: Manipur has seen some of the worst Congress governments. It`s due to lack of political vision and with that resources are not being harnessed and the North East is lagging behind - Modi

12:04 pm: I promise you to bring this region on par with other regions of India - Modi

12:03 pm: I met students from the North East in Delhi and assured them the nation is with them. I hope the Centre and Delhi government will stop the blame game and do justice in the matter, says Modi.

12:02 pm: The lack of governance in Delhi has led to Nido Tania`s death in the national capital. I condemn the Nido Tania incident in Delhi, there is no place for such acts. It is a shameful and sad incident. I offer my prayers for the boy - Modi
