The National People’s Party (NPP), hopeful of retaining power in home turf Meghalaya, has set its sights on Nagaland in the bid to be “voice of the northeast”.
The Assembly elections in Meghalaya, Nagaland and Tripura are due by February 2023.
The party, headed by Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma feels that its improved electoral show in the adjoining Manipur will spill over to Nagaland, where it had debuted with two seats in 2018. Tripura is not on its radar now.
