Dr Mukul Sangma running proxy BJP government, claims Trinamool Congress (TMC)

A CORRESPONDENT

SHILLONG: The Meghalaya Pradesh Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Wednesday inaugurated its Sstate party office in Lower Lachumiere here in the presence of TMC national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee, TMC Meghalaya State president Charles Pyngrope, TMC legislature party leader Dr Mukul Sangma and TMC Meghalaya in-charge Dr Manas Ranjan Bhunia.

Minutes later, Abhishek Banerjee and the State party unit launched a pan-State membership drive during a State party workers' meeting and asked the people of Meghalaya to support TMC in its endeavour to oust the NPP Government, which is a 'proxy Government run by the BJP'.

Speaking about the TMC's mission in Meghalaya, Abhishek Banerjee said, "All India Trinamool Congress is the only party that knows how to take the BJP head-on. We are the only ones who know how to show Amit Shah his place. And that's why we have come here, to defeat divisive forces."

Elaborating on the 'Be The Change' membership campaign wherein the people of Meghalaya can call on a phone number (9687796877) and extend their support, Abhishek Banerjee said, "Time has come for another independence in Meghalaya. The people here will not compromise on their self-respect and be at the mercy of other States."

Attacking Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma, Abhishek Banerjee said, "Have you seen the body language of the CM when he meets BJP top brass in Delhi? He is an elected Chief Minister representing 35 lakh Meghalayans, carrying their hopes and

aspirations. Should he bow down to BJP leaders? Is this why Meghalaya voted for him? If the answer is no, please support TMC."

In the presence of over 5,000 party workers, Abhishek Banerjee said, "TMC's only aim is to save Meghalaya from the divisive politics of the proxy BJP Government. Our only goal is also to empower the people, uphold the different ethnic cultures and celebrate the sacred land of Meghalaya."

Hitting out at the Governments both at the Centre as well as the State, Abhishek Banerjee said, "Under the false narrative of double engine government, they are doing double heist and double robbery. We elected Conrad Sangma with hope but he has become 'con-man' Sangma."
