In his speech, the Chief Minister expressed appreciation for the efforts of the Vantawng Group YMA and reaffirmed his commitment to continue working for the development of his constituency. He announced several upcoming initiatives, including the installation of a new ultrasound facility at Thenzawl Hospital and a dialysis unit at Serchhip Hospital. He also stated that the establishment of a new PWD Division in Thenzawl was a result of necessity and not favoritism. Plans for constructing a ropeway at Vantawng Falls were also mentioned.

Highlighting the “Peace City” project in Thenzawl envisioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Chief Minister expressed confidence in securing support through continued follow-ups.
