SHILLONG: Rebel People’s Democratic Front (PDF) MDC from Mawhati, James Sylliang who was suspended from the party for one year will tender his resignation on Friday.
Sylliang and another suspended MDC Grace Kharpuri were vocal against the misuse of funds by the party chairman who is also the KHADC CEM, P.N. Syiem.
Meanwhile, Pynursla Zonal Committee on Thursday demanded the reason of Kharpuri’s suspension from the leaders of the central leadership of the PDF before May 21. Kharpuri said, “We demand from the party to give the reasons for the suspension as no showcase notice was issued.”
She added that the Zonal committee will meet again on May 21 in which a final decision will be taken and to give time to the party to respond to the demands of the Pynursla Zonal committee.
