On Saturday itself, Mawrie, along with local party leaders, partook in a cleaning drive at Mawbah, to which many maintain that this is indicative of Mawrie’s plans to contest the elections from West Shillong constituency.
It was also informed that different wings and frontal organisations of the saffron party are already active in the constituency to prepare the base for the party in the constituency.
