SHILLONG/TURA: A high-level delegation of Garo MDCs representing the NPP-led Garo Hills Progressive Alliance of GHADC called on Meghalaya Governor V. Shanmuganathan on Friday to register a protest against the Mukul Sangma led state government for its alleged delaying tactics in clearing the name of NPP leader Conrad K Sangma for the post of nominated MDC and also the name of Rochonpara NPP MDC Dipul R Marak for the post of executive member.
The three-member delegation comprised of GHADC Deputy Chief Executive Member (CEM) Augustine R Marak, Deputy Chairman Mettrinson G Momin and Rochonpara MDC Dipul R Marak.
Later addressing newsmen, Augustine R. Marak said, “We are upset with the delay in clearing Conrad’s name.” He further added that the Governor assured them to look into the matter.
The District Council Affairs Department in the state had received the names of Conrad Sangma and Dipul Marak from the GHADC in the first week of November but had allegedly not forwarded the same to the Governor for approval.
