Itanagar: To end the ongoing political turmoil in Arunachal Pradesh over the change of leadership in the state, Chief Minister Jarbom Gamlin and dissident leader Nabam Tuki on Sunday authorised Congress chief Sonia Gandhi to take the final call on the issue.

“In view of the political turmoil in the state, both Tuki and Gamlin authorised Sonia Gandhi in writing to decide on the change of leadership issue,” AICC General Secretary and in-charge of Arunachal Pradesh Dhaniram Shandil told PTI from New Delhi.

While Gandhi summoned Gamlin to New Delhi yesterday, APCC President Tuki has been camping in the national capital for the past few months along with other ministers and MLAs to pressurise the Congress leadership for a change in the leadership in the state.

Many Nyishi organisations in the state also demanded Gamlin’s resignation over his alleged failure to improve the the law and order situation. (PTI)
