Talking to mediapersons, the General Secretary of the UPPL, Raju Kr Narzary, said that the party was committed to staying in the NDA alliance from 2020 to 2026, but that the latest political scenario changed after the BPF decided to field candidates in 15 constituencies. He also said there was no point in staying in the NDA, which he said was maintaining dual standards. Hence, he said that the UPPL would stand alone.
