Imphal, January 07 2022: Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah inaugurated and laid the foundation stones for 29 development works worth Rs 2,450 crore through video conferencing yesterday in the presence of Chief Minister N Biren Singh.

In his address on the occasion, the Union Home Minister said that Manipur was made the gateway for freedom during the freedom struggle by Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and Manipur also had the opportunity to hoist the first flag of the INA.

This year is the 75th year of the Nation's Independence and the whole country is celebrating Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav and Manipur will also complete 50 years of its formation.

In a sense, 75 years of Independence and 50 years of Manipur are years of new resolve and new energy for all Manipuris, said Amit Shah.

The Home Minister said that the State Government under the leadership of Chief Minister N Biren Singh has been committed to the development of every corner of Manipur in the past five years.

The biggest achievement of the Biren Singh Government is that it has opened the avenues of stability and peace as well as development for Manipur.

Manipur has made a successful effort to come out from the tradition of blockades, violence, corruption, bandhs, drugs trade of previous Governments, noted the Union Home Minister.

In just two days, works costing about Rs 5,500 crore have started for the people of Manipur.

The Union Home Minister asked whether there were any such two days in the long rule of previous Governments, when works worth Rs 5,500 crore were inaugurated and the foundation stones were laid.

Amit Shah said that the importance of organic food products is going to increase in the coming times.

In this direction, organic outlets, cold rooms and packing units have been inaugurated at Sanjenthong under the special scheme of Organic Mission for North Eastern Region under the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare.

Under the Prime Minister Agriculture Irrigation Scheme, 75 tube wells were also started today at a cost of Rs 8 crore.

Five projects in the animal husbandry sector have been started at a cost of Rs 16 crore, four bridges and roads are to be constructed at a cost of Rs 21 crore, four drinking water supply projects completed at a total cost of Rs 36 crore will help about 31,000 people from tomorrow.

An International Hostel building has been dedicated in Manipur University campus and a Police Memorial has also been inaugurated.

The Home Minister also announced infrastructure development project for Shirui Mahotsav at a cost of Rs 46 crore, development of 'Hunar Hub', foundation stone of 'Olympian Park' at Imphal, expanded facilities at the cricket stadium at Luwangsangbam, foundation stone of District Court complexes at a cost of Rs 108 crore in Senapati, Noney and Kakching districts, five reservoirs and two major projects at Thangapat at a cost of Rs 22 crore and several water bodies.

A plan has also been made for the development of 450 acres of Lamphelpat water body.

The project for rejuvenation of 450 acres of Lamphelpat water body with funding of Rs 650 crore from the New Development Bank and about Rs 1,149 crore fund from the New Development Bank will start the second phase of the Integrated Sewerage System for Imphal city.

The Union Home Minister alleged that earlier Governments used to indulge in politics round the clock, supported armed groups.

But now both the Modi Government at the Center and the N Biren Singh Government in Manipur have together introduced Manipur to double engine development.

He added that during the previous Government there were three Is, Instability, Insurgency and Inequality.

"We have changed the three Is to Innovation, Infrastructure and Integration, only then can the country become one and the North East become one.

31 Tribal Museums will be set up across the country, out of which one will be in Manipur.
