SHILLONG, JUNE 2: BJP leader and cabinet minister Sanbor Shullai on Thursday asked his party colleague and former minister AL Hek to refrain from making “anti-government” statements.
“I cannot understand why Hek is like this despite being a very senior leader. When he was holding the post of a minister, you will see him if there is anything also, he will keep quiet so people should understand. When he had to leave the chair of minister, he started giving all sorts of statements without my knowledge as a colleague in the government. Let people judge,” Shullai told reporters.
“That is why I appeal to him as my colleague that henceforth does not give all these bullshit statements without consulting me because he is not the only BJP (MLA), I am also a BJP (MLA)… As a matured politician he should refrain from giving such statements,” he added.
His statement came a day after MPCC chief Vincent Pala has alleged that the MDA is a divided house by citing the example that “While AL Hek is criticizing the government, Sanbor Shullai is defending the government.”
When asked, Shullai maintained that the party will only pull out of the MDA government if “we get the direction from the central leadership in Delhi”.
“Therefore, if you have any problems, take them up with the chief minister or the concerned departments. It is not good to make such statements as people will laugh at you,” he added.
Meanwhile, the South Shillong MLA also appealed to the electorate of Meghalaya to give BJP a chance in 2023.
Referring to the dome collapse, shoddy construction of the ISBT and other incidents, Shullai said, “Cement is used for construction of various buildings but it seem that this cement in this tenure is not suitable for any construction (as) Assembly collapsed, ISBT collapsed, bypass collapsed. It is not suitable. So I appeal to the people of Meghalaya in order to avoid such a collapse incident, change the cement by giving the cement of BJP government then everything we will take care of, your dreams will come true, all problems of teachers, educated unemployed, road, development everything we will give you.”
He cited that recently Assam had witnessed handing over of appointment to 23,000. In the first phase they have created over 7 lakh job opportunities.
“In this way, it will also happen in Meghalaya if you change this cement. Give BJP cement, then everything you will get and there will be no more collapse of buildings henceforth. As soon as the BJP government starts functioning you will see…all aspirations of the people will be fulfilled within a short span of time,” he claimed.
