At Kohima, Munda laid the foundation stone for Kohima Village Multipurpose Hall (KVMH) at Kohima village ground Ziekezou here on Monday evening. Speaking on the occasion, Munda said that the Modi government was committed toward develop the tribal areas in the north eastern region so that people these areas were brought at par with the other developed regions of the country.
He said it was the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to see that people of the North Eastern states did not feel that they were left behind.
