SHILLONG, Jan 25: Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) state president Saleng Sangma has downplayed the assumption that it would be tough for the NCP to face the might of National People’s party (NPP), debutants All India Trinamool Congress and the grand old party Congress, in the upcoming Assembly elections in 2023.
Talking about bolstering the party, which at present has a single seat in the state, Saleng Sangma told reporters here that it is the people who will decide the fate of the NCP, while making it clear that he is sticking with the NCP.
Stating that NCP is a good party with clean image, the party’s state president admitted that he has always received proposals from different political parties to join on the bandwagon.
Asked how he sees AITC’s entry in the state, Sangma said that it would be tough to predict anything at present.
