Shillong, Dec 14: Deputy Chief Minister Prestone Tynsong flayed the AITC national spokesperson Saket Gokhale and wanted to know how much love and care he has for Meghalaya.
Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Tynsong said he is not willing to take back his statement that Gokhale was “psycho”.
“My statement also stands. Why should I spend time with a person who has nothing to do and we really don’t know how much he loves and cares about Meghalaya.”
He said, “I think you all know he is from which place and then he is talking as if he is part and parcel of Meghalaya but he is not at all.”
Asserting that he has never seen such a national spokesperson like Gokhale before, Tynsong said, “When you make allegations you need to also bring in the documentary proofs otherwise just for the sake of saying that MDA government is a thief this and that I think I will not at all spend time with this fellow.”
Mukul criticised for ILP stand
Tynsong said the people of Meghalaya will come to know about the true colour of Leader of Opposition Mukul Sangma on the Inner Line Permit (ILP) issue as he had not supported it when the Congress-led government was in power.
Tynsong said the MDA will take up ILP and Khasi-Garo language recognition with the Prime Mimister during his visit to the state .
