TURA, Nov 6: The fight for the now ‘prestigious’ Gambegre Assembly seat is heating up with the Trinamool Congress going all out against the ruling NPP.
TMC leader and former chief minister Mukul Sangma was particularly vocal against the ruling side, reiterating that the BJP and the NPP were just two sides of the same coin, and even going to the extent of calling Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma an agent of the BJP.
“There is a nexus between the BJP and the CM who did not even dare to stand for MLA elections after being defeated twice in Selsella. It was the BJP leaders who made him the chief minister despite him not being an MLA. This is because he is an agent of the BJP,” Mukul alleged.
Mukul claimed that the nexus between the two parties was revealed even further during the recent Lok Sabha elections.
“The BJP and the NPP decided to join hands and pool their votes together to defeat other candidates in the fray. They told the people that the BJP and the NPP had a single candidate, which was when people realized that what they thought was a sheep was in fact, a wolf. The sheep’s clothing had come off,” Mukul added.
He alleged that while the symbols of the two parties were different, their goals and objectives were identical.
