Before Shillong, PM Modi had also reached Dimapur in Nagaland. Here too, he accused the Congress of considering the Northeast as ‘ATM’. He said that the government’s money used to reach the coffers of the corrupt instead of the public. He said, “For the Northeast, for Nagaland, the policy of the Congress and its allies has been - get votes and forget. From Delhi to Dimapur, these people had given priority to familism, that’s why the entire North-East including Nagaland is paying the punishment for their sins today.”
