Bodoland CEM Cup: A Beacon of Unity and Progress Celebrated in 'Mann Ki Baat'

Bodoland Territorial Council's Chief Executive Member, Pramod Boro, extended heartfelt thanks to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for acknowledging the Bodoland CEM Cup in his 'Mann Ki Baat' broadcast. Boro described it as a "proud moment" for Bodoland, emphasizing the sports event's role in promoting unity and youth involvement in a region once fraught with conflict.

He credited this initiative to the motivation stemming from Modi's 2020 visit, where the Prime Minister called on Bodoland to abandon violence and start over towards peace. Highlighting the government's achievements over four years, Boro spoke about maintaining peace and fostering communal harmony after decades of unrest.

During 'Mann Ki Baat,' Modi celebrated the CEM Cup as a symbol of unity, noting its wide participation.
