Congress disputes Sangma claim
By Our Special Correspondent
NEW DELHI,
JAN. 21.
The Congress today disputed the claim of the Nationalist Congress Party leader, P.A. Sangma, about the allegiance of the NCP legislators in the northeast joining hands with him in opposing the proposed alliance with the Congress.
The Meghalaya Chief Minister and party leader, D.D. Lapang, said the eight NCP MLAs in the State would have to face the consequences of the new anti-defection law if they quit the party.
He said the NCP had no roots in his State since the party was formed after splitting the Congress.
Asked how the Congress could accuse the NCP of effecting a split when it wooed six NCP MLAs recently and gave ministerial berths to four of them.
He said the party could do so as the new law had not come into force.
"If we had time, we would have got all of them," he added.
