More MLAs & MDCs approached us: BJP state chief

Shillong, Nov 9: BJP state president Rikman Momin said that several sitting MLAs and MDCs have approached the party to join.
“However a decision of their joining will be taken after a crucial meet on November 15 with central leaders”, Momin said
He said the coordination committee headed by an MLA for all four Issues- Khasi language, MRSSA, relocation of Harijan colony and coal mining-will be announced after returning from Delhi.
“The central team shall coordinate with the respective MLAs of the coordination committee so that the issues can get resolved at the earliest. He also revealed that the state BJP will play a crucial role in resolving the issues with the active support of the BJP MLAs”,he said.
Momin acknowledged the stand of 8 newly joined BJP MLAs for joining the party with an intention to resolve the key issues .
“This is evident as we can see how things are moving fast after they joined the party. We can clearly see how keenly the Centre is taking us after the numbers have increased. The positive effects also could be seen after the coal committee and JPC committee visited Shillong following the surge in BJP numbers in the state. We will ensure that the interest of Christian institutions in the state will be strongly and rightly preserved. We will meet the JPC chairman in Delhi and apprise him of our state party’s stand and suggest the most suited solution to resolve the problems. The issue cannot be resolved without the intervention of the state party. People should understand that if we want more issues to be solved and development to be fast tracked, the people have to give the BJP a clear majority in the assembly and then see the positive difference it makes to the state and its people”, Momin said.
