Guwahati: North East Democratic Alliance convenor Himanta Biswa Sarma on Friday claimed the NDA has formed a government in Arunachal Pradesh with 43 of the 44 Congress MLAs there joining the regional outfit PPA, thereby rejecting Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi’s leadership.
At a press meet here, Sarma said, “As the PPA is a part of NEDA, which is a constituent of the (BJP-led) NDA, an NDA government is in Arunachal Pradesh from Friday.”
“Arunachal is free from Congress.”
“With this development, stability should come to Arunachal Pradesh and bring the entire North East under the development umbrella of the NDA government,” he said. (PTI)
