Kohima: The eight Nagaland Congress MLAs, who were suspended by the All India Congress Committee and issued show-cause notices on May 9, have submitted their replies to AICC on Saturday at New Delhi.
In a statement here, Nagaland CLP leader Tokheho Yepthomi said as per AICC’s directive all the eight MLAs submitted their replies.
He said AICC disciplinary committee would now examine their replies and only then a decision would be arrived at.
