According to Meghalaya BJP leader Bernard Marak, NPP ‘can't afford’ to detach itself from BJP in the state and is with them 'only for central funds'. NPP has 31 MLAs in 60-member assembly.
The NPP, led by Meghalaya CM Conrad Sangma, Sunday pulled out from Biren Singh's government in Manipur, saying it had completely failed to restore normalcy in the state.
Meghalaya CM and NPP chief Conrad Sangma wrote to BJP national president Nadda conveying party’s decision. NPP local unit says ‘will go as per the wishes of the people in Manipur’.
Rising anti-outsider incidents in Shillong stoke fears among non-tribals over a return to Meghalaya's violent past. NPP-led coalition denies claims it is soft on pressure groups.
On NPP losing both LS seats it contested, Conrad Sangma, in an interview with ThePrint, said his party's 'alignment' with certain other parties & anti-incumbency may have been factors.
Seven other MLAs from NPP, two from regional UDP, and one each from BJP and Hill State People’s Democratic Party were also administered oath of secrecy as cabinet ministers.
Sangma’s NPP, UDP, and BJP, along with other allies, set to serve second term in office after contesting polls separately. PM Modi to attend state govt oath ceremony.
Disenfranchisement by institutional fiat is profoundly undemocratic. The effect of the ECI's new documentary process in Bihar will tilt the scales in favour of the BJP.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
India-Russia JV is also racing to deliver 7,000 more AK-203 assault rifles by 15 Aug. These are currently being made with 50% indigenisation and this will surge to 100% by 31 December.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
NPP is the most corrupt of all Northeastern political parties. And the Sangma dynasty is the most corrupt of all political dynasties in the northeast.
The Sangma siblings have milked their father’s illustrous legacy to the last drop and amassed massive wealth. Their corruption knows no bounds. Their properties run into thousands of crores. And they have made this fortune at the cost of the tribal population of northeast India. They have looted Meghalaya the most and built huge personal fortunes.
I request the Union govt to initiate ED and CBI probes against the Sangma family members and their ill gotten wealth.
