Shillong, November 27: The 1st General Conference of the Dadenggre Block of the NPP was held on Saturday the 25th of November at Tebronggre village. The Conference saw an attendance thousand of supporters of the NPP from across 49-Dadenggre LAC.
Speaking in the general conference the Chief Guest Mr Conrad K Sangma, MP and National President of the NPP congratulated the President Mr Walther N Sangma and other Members of the Dadeng Block Committee for organising the Conference.
He expressed his happiness at the growth of the Party and attributed this to the strong foundations laid by the founder of the Party Lt. Shri P A Sangma.These foundations were based on the welfare and protection of the rights of Tribals, religious minorities including Christians and the people of North East in general.
He also expressed confidence that the outcome of the Meghalaya General Assembly Elections to be held in the year 2018 would go in the favour of the NPP which would form the Government. The decision by Dr. D D Lapang MPCC President and senior leader of the Congress not to contest the upcoming Elections was a sign, among many, that the Congress would be rejected by the people of Meghalaya and ultimately face defeat in the upcoming Elections.
Mr Conrad Sangma also appreciated the fact that careful selection of candidates based upon the criteria of qualification, experience and genuine concern for the welfare of the people would go a long way in ensuring success for the NPP in the upcoming elections.
Mr Denang T Sangma, MDC and former CEM GHADC, criticised the present GHADC EC led by Boston Marak for their inability to pay the salaries of the employees for a period of over 15 months now. In comparison, during the 17 month tenure of the NPP led GHADC, the EC under his care had been able to clear off salaries for a period of 12 months out of 17.
