Prestone asks Mukul to desist from playing politics on border issue

Shillong, April 18: Deputy Chief Minister Prestone Tynsong  has asked the Leader of Opposition Mukul Sangma to stop playing political over the boundary dispute.

“I think the LO should be responsible by giving the right statement and not create confusion among the citizens of the state. I would urge him to please join with the government. Whatever decision taken or MoU signed I think you need to appreciate, don’t just try to play political games on this issue which is the life and death of the generation to come,” Tynsong told reporters on Monday.

In response to the allegation made by Mukul that the National People’s Party-led Meghalaya Democratic Alliance government has become a “victim of manipulation” by signing the MoU on border deal, Tynsong said there was no collective decision by the then Cabinet led by Mukul Sangma on the boundary issue and said the former chief minister never shared details about the 12 areas of difference.

“He prepared all the details about 12 areas of difference and sent them to Assam. He was the one who did it. Though I was part of the government that time he never shared what are the areas of difference,” he said.

  1.  The MDA government is sticking to the list submitted in 2011, Tynsong said.
