The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national president, Shri Jagat Prakash Nadda on Wednesday released the party's manifesto in Shillong for the upcoming Meghalaya Assembly election which is scheduled to be held on February 27, 2023.

Shri Nadda said, Meghalaya is a beautiful state and it has a lot of potential. I find that there is a competition of development among the Northeastern states after Hon’ble Shri Narendra Modi ji came into power but Meghalaya is marred by corruption. I am glad to be present here and present the manifesto for Meghalaya. Meghalaya is a State rich in culture and traditions. There is a great scope for the State to prosper, and we look forward to take it to the new heights under the dynamic leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, he further added.

We need a strong Meghalaya and it is possible with only a strong BJP. To achieve this, we have to think big. Speed, Scale and Skill - are three aspects that have to be managed well.
