After releasing the party’s manifesto for the February 27 assembly polls, Ramesh said Meghalaya means the abode of the clouds but  these clouds have taken on a different meaning.

“Today, the clouds are of no rain bearing clouds but these clouds are of corruption, these clouds are of unemployment, power cuts, these clouds are of damage to the independent identity of people of Meghalaya and finally these are the clouds of political puppetry.”

Criticising the political puppets of the BJP, he said, “There is one puppet master he sits in Delhi and there are puppets in different states. Here there is one puppet called the NPP, there is another puppet called the UDP and now there is a new, third puppet that has come into Meghalaya politics TMC or JMP.

He urged the people of Meghalaya not to be under any illusion,.

The Rajya member said, “These are all part of the BJP’s game plan. NPP is BJP’s A-team, UDP is BJP’s B-team and TMC or JMP is BJP’s C-team here…Congress is fighting a three-party or four-party alliance led by the BJP.”

He said the BJP may not have electoral presence but it has other presence.

“You know what I mean in spite of the demonetization there is a lot of monetization that takes place, thanks to the BJP”, he added.

He said the state in the last five years has had a government of the MDA, by the MDA and for the MDA or the ‘Money Development Alliance’.

Ramesh alleged that the alliance partners of the MDA have taken a “temporary divorce” for the purpose of elections and are claiming to be fighting as independent parties.

“But let nobody be fooled as the NPP, the UDP and the BJP are all part and parcel of the same package,” he said.

The Congress is fighting the cloud of corruption, the cloud of unemployment, the cloud of destruction of Meghalaya’s identity and finally the cloud of unholy alliance – BJP, NPP, UDP, TMC–who are all claiming to fight independently now but mark my words at the first opportunity they will jump into bed together”, he added.
