Sarma slams Mukul for lack of development

TURA: Assam minister and North East Democratic Alliance chairperson Himanta Biswa Sarma blamed Chief Minister Mukul Sangma for under-development in the state.
Addressing a rally at Tikrikilla in West Garo Hills district, Sarma accused Sangma of being more of a contractor than a leader. “Mukul has been at the helm for a long time. However, there are no roads in Tikrikilla. There are also no medical or engineering colleges though there were foundation stones. The only thing that has happened is the development of Mukul Sangma who is not a leader but a contractor.”
He further added that BJP’s agenda for development was all encompassing though the same did not seem to be in the case of Meghalaya.
“In the 19 states that BJP is ruling, employees are getting their salaries according to the 7th Pay Commission. In Meghalaya, teachers are being deprived of their rightful salaries. You can also see how much of corruption there has been in the government through the education scam,” he added. According to him, people seem to be waiting for the Congress government to go out so that BJP can take its place.
