Sharing the experience of his Nagaland counterpart, the chief minister said, "All the Chief Ministers of North East regions are very close to each other nowadays. Often we share our thoughts over the development activities being carried out in the North East region."

"When I asked Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio about his experience of being in office before PM Modi came to power, he said that Chief Ministers of small states used to get less importance in New Delhi. Only after PM Modi came to power all the CMs are given equal importance and patient hearing.," he added.

On the 2023 polls slated for next year, Deb said, "I am optimistic that people of the state shall repose their faith in BJP for the wave of development it brought in the last four years."
