New Delhi: Former Lok Sabha Speaker Purno Agitok Sangma on Monday asserted that the Northeastern states were not as alienated from the national mainstream as often portrayed but it was rather the rest of the country which seemed to be estranged from the N-E region.
He was speaking during the release of a book Dawn Marathon Race to Acche Din penned by Phidalia Toi from Meghalaya. The book is about the first year of NDA Government. The book was released by Union Minister for Minority Affairs Najma Heptulla.
