Meghalaya Assembly Election: Refusal to approve stadium for PM's rally, BJP raises many questions


Posted on 20th Feb 2023 02:50 pm by rohit kumar

Meghalaya's Sports Department has denied permission to host Prime Minister Narendra Modi's election rally at the PA Sangma Stadium, citing construction work. The BJP expressed its displeasure over this, alleging that the ruling National People's Party (NPP), Trinamool Congress, and other opposition parties are working together to stop the BJP wave in the state.

 

Alotgre Cricket Stadium is being considered as an alternative

Speaking to the media, District Election Officer Swapnil Tembe said, "It has been informed by the Sports Department that it would not be appropriate to host such a large gathering during the construction work at the stadium as it would interfere with the security of the material kept at the site." This will amount to abandonment. However, Alotgre Cricket Stadium is being considered as an alternative for the meeting."

 

Inaugurated in December last year

Built for Rs 127 crore, the stadium was inaugurated by the Chief Minister on December 16 last year. In such a situation, BJP's National General Secretary Rituraj Sinha said that he is surprised that how a stadium can be declared unavailable for a PM's rally two months after its inauguration.

 

The people of the state have made up their minds to support the BJP.

BJP national general secretary said, "Are Konrad Sangma and Mukul Sangma scared of us? They are trying to stop the BJP wave in Meghalaya. You can try and stop the PM's rally, but the people of the state have made up its mind to support the BJP." Sinha asserted that other parties were taken aback by the people's response to the rallies of Union Home Minister Amit Shah and other star campaigners of the BJP.

 

PM's roadshow in Shillong on 24 February

The Prime Minister was scheduled to campaign in Shillong and Tura on 24 February. At the same time, senior BJP leader AL Hek said that the Prime Minister will hold a roadshow on February 24 in the Pinthorumkhrah constituency of Shillong.
