Kharchandy, vice president, Shillong Lok Sabha, MPYC, had on Tuesday said that the statement of Zenith Sangma made on May 1 had shocked and hurt the sentiments of the youth members across the State at a time when they were trying hard out to come up with ideas through their varied initiatives to boost the morale of the Youth Congress.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, Marak said that Kharchandy has been suspended as a disciplinary action for overstepping the MPYC president and releasing a statement to the media without any consultation with the president.
