3:37 pm: Modi tells of the Gujarat example, where all applicants were asked to upload their certificates and testimonials on line, and those getting the highest marks are automatically sent letters of appointment for the posts of teachers. This has autmoatically eliminated corruption.
3:33 pm: Modi says, how he proposed 200 women policemen from each Northeast state knowing English to be sent on deputation to Gujarat to help out in tourism. But none of the state governments agreed. My invitation stills stands today. Send the women policemen to Gujarat for two years. These women policemen on return to the Northeast will promote tourism here, because the Gujaratis will then flock to Northeast.
3:31 pm: Modi raises infiltration issue. Says, Rajiv Gandhi had during the 1985 Assam Accord promised to throw out foreign nationals. Has the accord been implemented? the crowd shouts no. The youths in Assam are not getting jobs, but youths who are foreign nationals are taking away their jobs. India needs a strong government at the Centre, which can speak to Bangladesh and get these foreign nationals weeded out. I promise you this.
3:26 pm: If Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune can develop as IT hubs, why not Assam and Guwahati. If given connectivity through broadband and optical fibre, Assamese youths sitting in small towns in this state can connect to Bangalore and Hyderabad and earn. When I tell them (Congress), they till me where is electricity. I tell them, then bring electricity. You need political will power. You gave Congress 60 years, give me 60 months, crowd applauds.
3:24 pm: India has the youngest population, nearly 65 per cent are below 35 years of age. If we do not give your youths the skill, the job opportunities, this demographic dividend can turn into demographic disaster. we need a Skill Development Commission.
