It is essential that they receive a smooth and conducive environment to continue their efforts.”
Both Chief Ministers, Conrad Sangma and Pema Khandu, listened to the concerns with great sensitivity and assured that necessary actions would be taken soon to resolve these issues. They also acknowledged the valuable contribution of Punjabi entrepreneurs to the growth and development of the northeastern region and promised all possible cooperation in the future.
Expressing gratitude, Ajayvir Singh Lalpura thanked both leaders for their positive attitude and cooperative approach. He stated that this dialogue marks a significant step toward resolving the ongoing issues and also strengthens the spirit of unity and collaboration among different regions of the country.
The meeting truly embodied the spirit of “Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat”, building a bridge of development, cooperation, and brotherhood from the North to the East.
