Shillong, March 3: Two HSPDP MLAs who were part of the non NPP-BJP alliance have submitted a letter of support to NPP leader Conrad Sangma on Friday evening.

After the meeting of the non-NPP group which had claimed the support of 30 MLAs out of 59 ,the leaders of TMC, Mukul Sangma and Charles Pyngrope said the purpose of meeting was to explore an alternative arrangement.
Mukul said to prevent installing a corrupt government, all the like minded parties should come together.
