SHILLONG, Dec 6: The HSPDP remains optimistic about achieving its long-pending demand for separate Khasi and Garo states, despite acknowledging the process will be lengthy.
HSPDP chief KP Pangniang said the demand is rooted in the vision of veteran leaders HS Lyngdoh and Clifford Marak. To build momentum nationally, the party has joined the National Federation of New States (NFNHS), which comprises stakeholders pressing for statehood demands across the country. “The Federation would hold a sit-in demonstration at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi later this month to press for the demands of separate states,” Pangniang stated.
“Though the matter will take a very long time, we believe our vision will be fulfilled,” he said.
