If the candidates of the ruling National People’s Party (NPP) win, matrilineal Meghalaya would be India’s first State with more than one Lok Sabha seat to have all-women Members of Parliament.
For that to happen, the NPP has to get the better of a Congress desperate to hold on to the Shillong parliamentary constituency, the last of its bastions across the hill States of the Northeast, and retain the Tura seat.
