SHILLONG: Ending all speculations, UDP MDC from Nongthymmai Latiplang Kharkongor has finally resigned from the primary membership of the party.”I have taken this step since the party has allotted ticket for Nongthymmai constituency in clear violation of the merger agreement between UDP and KHNAM made on November 23, 2011,” Kharkongor said in the resignation letter addressed to the party president Dr Donkupar Roy on Thursday.
Kharkongor had given a hint of quitting the party soon after he was denied ticket to contest in the upcoming Assembly election from the constituency. The party offered the ticket to Dr Jemino Mawthoh claiming that Kharkongor withdrew from the race for the party ticket in favour of the former.
