Thambi Durai, and UPPL chief and Rajya Sabha Member Pramod Boro were present at the breakfast meeting. NCPI MP Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar told presspersons: “The Prime Minister said those who are with the NDA for the last 20 years or even one year are all family members.
He said we will work hard for the development of West Bengal and the eight northeastern States. We all will work together. This is a very good message he has given to us, we all will work together.” At the meeting, Mr. Modi
reportedly stressed the need for the smooth functioning of Parliament. He urged MPs to practise yoga regularly, undergo periodic health check-ups and contribute effectively to nation-building. Assuring support for constituency development, he told them not to worry, saying he stood with every MP.
