SHILLONG, APRIL 29: The National People’s Party (NPP) on Monday slammed the opposition Congress for its misinformation campaign and termed it as a political lie.
Addressing media persons here, NPP state president Dr WR Kharlukhi said the Congress had alleged the NPP of disguising its relationship with the BJP.
“This a political lie. We never disguise our relationship with the BJP,” he said
Earlier in January this year, Kharlukhi said a meeting of all regional parties of the NE was held in Guwahati under the chairmanship of Conrad K Sangma CM of Meghalaya who is also the national president of the party in which a decision was arrived at to oppose the Citizenship Amendment Bill.
He said then on February the National General Council of the NPP was held in Shillong in which the party decided that if the CAB is passed in the Rajya Sabha the party will withdraw from the NDA. Since the BJP did not introduce the CAB in the Rajya Sabha the NPP still remained till date part of the NDA.
Kharlukhi however said this same political lie was spread by the Congress during the district council election but the people have given them resounding reply in which they lost miserably in Khasi HIlls and they were decimated in Jaintia Hills
“I am very confident that the people will give them a befitting reply on May 23 and they will realise that spreading lies will not help them. I pity the Congress losing every election from 2018 onwards, this seems to be the last straw that they are grasping at,” the NPP state president said while adding after May 23, they will also realise that their dreams of coming back to power in Meghalaya is going to be a distant dream.
