"BJP is giving importance on the development of North East and the welfare tribals of the country.
And there is no room for discrimination of the people on the ground of castes, creeds and religions in the party" .
This was stated by Tapir Gao, National Executive Council Member and In charge of Manipur BJP during the One day political campaign for a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Candidate of 7 Aimol Tampak District Council Constituency held at Molnoi Area Khulmi Lentuol (Ground) in Chandel District on Friday.
Addressing at the campaign, Tapir Gao said that BJP is giving importance on the welfare of North East and the tribals of the country.
When the BJP came to power at the Centre under the Prime Ministership of Atal Behari Vajpayee, the Government had taken up many development programmes for the North East like setting up of a separate Ministry for Development of North Eastern states.
But the Congress led government who ruled the country for more than sixty years has done nothing much for the development of the Tribals and the North East.
Even in Manipur, O.Ibobi led Congress government has ruled the state for more than 13 years and did not taken up any visible developmental works in the hill districts.
Accusing the Congress led State government of embezzling large amount of developmental funds, Tapir Gao further maintained that there are no proper school, hospitals and road connectivity in the hill Districts.
Even in the constituency of Deputy Chief Minister, there is also no community hall in a village for public gathering.
As such, it is the time for the people of Manipur to vote against the congress, the party who has embezzled large amount of public funds, he added.
While clarifying that BJP is not a communal party, Tapir Gao also said that there are a lots of Christian and Muslim elected representatives from the north eastern states in the party.
As such, there is no room for discrimination of the people on the ground of caste and religion in the party.
During his speech, Tapir Gao also clarified the recent controversy regarding beef consumption by stating that it is a state subject matter and BJP has no right to interfere with the traditions, cultures and custom of the people.
Former Union Minister and BJP Manipur Pradesh's President Th.Chaoba, State Core Committee member of BJP Manipur Pradesh Prof.Tiken, BJP National Council Member Yanglet Haokip and BJP Manipur Pradesh' s General Secretary (Adm) M.Ashinikumar who graced the political campaign as the Functional President, Guest of Honous and Special Guests also spoke in the campaign.
