A five-party alliance cobbled together by the BJP and led by the NPP is set to come to power in Meghalaya, edging out the Congress which had emerged as the single-largest party in yesterday’s results. Sources say NPP leader Conrad Sangma may be the next chief minister, but his sister Agatha Sangma has also emerged as the dark horse. The Grand Old Party, however, is in no mood to suffer the ‘Goa fate’ again, with outgoing CM Mukul Sangma saying the Congress is in talks with “like-minded parties”. The Congress had met the Governor last night and staked claimed to form the government, but is short of majority with no local parties yet offering support.
Will the BJP add Meghalaya to its kitty today? Stay tuned as Sumedha Kirti brings you live updates:
