Sanbor unhappy with NPP for not giving cabinet berths to BJP MLAs

Minister from the BJP, Sanbor Shullai, has expressed unhappiness over the recent cabinet reshuffle and portfolio allocation after no BJP MLA was inducted in the cabinet.

Paul Lyngdoh, who joined the NPP, was accommodated in the cabinet.


Lyngdoh also got the additional portfolio of Arts and Culture held by Shullai, who was allotted the newtaxation portfolio.

In a statement issued on Wednesday( Nov 4), Shullai, who is the legislature party leader, said the BJP,
being the second largest party, should have been consulted.
