The PM's visit to Arunchal Pradesh is indeed a step in the right direction. The Look east policy of the Center is finally looking at the right east (and not beyond to the southeast asian countries).
It is true that North Indians..or any of the rest of India requires an inner line permit to enter Arunachal...but I think that is for the betterment of the state and for the country as a whole. The tribals of Arunchal Pradesh indeed need to preserve their culture and their diversity.
Not for the Inner line permit, the state would be full of Bangladeshis (if not citizens from other less developes states).
Hope the PM keeps to his words and facilitates the rise of this sleeping star...from the east!
