SHILLONG: Former MLA Marcuise Marak, who is still with NPP, has downplayed the claim of Williamnagar legislator Deborah Marak about the exodus of NPP party workers.
Deborah, who is also the Cabinet minister, had on Saturday claimed that around 500 to 600 supporters of NPP joined the Congress. But according to Marcuise, after verification it was found that around 150 people attended the Congress youth convention meeting.
“There was not a single new face other than the old Congress workers,” Marcuise said in a statement clarifying media reports.
According to Marcuise, the claim is a desperate attempt by the Congress to misguide and confuse his supporters and party leaders.
“There is no veracity of the claim and in fact, there has been exodus of Congress workers,” he said, adding, “Like the rest of the country, the people of Garo Hills know that the Congress has no future in Meghalaya anymore and that the party is now at its gasping stage with no apparent leader to save it.”
Marcuise also said with the legacy of his leader PA Sangma, there is no question of joining the Congress.
