SHILLONG, APR 6: The National People’s Party (NPP) National President and Chief Minister of Meghalaya, Conrad K. Sangma on Monday addressed a massive election rally at Bamunigaon under the 28–Boko Chaygaon (ST) constituency in Assam, seeking support for party candidate Ganseng B. Sangma.
The rally witnessed an overwhelming turnout, with a sea of supporters gathering to express solidarity with the party’s vision of a united Northeast. The event was attended by several NPP leaders, including MLAs from Meghalaya and MDCs from the Garo Hills Autonomous District Council (GHADC), along with National Vice President I.

Recalling his father’s legacy, Sangma shared how P.A. Sangma would travel long distances to address even the smallest gatherings with humility and respect. He noted that such grassroots commitment forms the foundation of NPP’s growing presence across the region.
“The seed planted by P.A. Sangma in Meghalaya fourteen years ago has now grown into a tree that shelters the entire Northeast,” he said. “His dream of uniting all communities under one platform is becoming a reality.”
Sangma urged voters to support Ganseng B. Sangma, describing him as a sincere and dedicated leader who reflects the party’s commitment to inclusive development.
“If Ganseng becomes MLA, it will mark a new dawn for NPP in Assam,” he added.
Other prominent leaders who addressed the rally included Meghalaya’s senior MLA and former speaker and minister A.T Mondal, Vice President Hemochandra Singh and MLA from Manipur Rameshwar Singh.
MLAs who attended included Sanjay Sangma, Marthon Sangma, Pongseng Marak, Rupert Momin, and Jim Sangma. All speakers reiterated the vision of a strong and united Northeast and called for a decisive mandate in favor of the party.
