Prime Minister designate Narendra Modi Saturday congratulated newly sworn-in Nagaland Chief Minister T.R. Zeliang.
"Congratulations to T.R. Zeliang on taking oath as Nagaland chief minister. My best wishes and support in Nagaland's development journey," Modi said in a tweet.
Zeliang of Naga People's Front was Thursday appointed as the new chief minister of the state following the resignation of Neiphiu Rio who won the lone Lok Sabha seat in Nagaland.
