After eight MLAs went to BJP, Meghalaya regional party set to lose three more
Eight legislators have already defected from Meghalaya’s United Democratic Party (UDP) to the Bharatiya Janata Party, and the party faces further losses as three of the four remaining UDP members have filed applications with Speaker Thomas A. Sangma to join the ruling National People’s Party (NPP). The moves could significantly reduce UDP’s representation in the state assembly.
