TMC candidate Richard M Marak today said that the MDA government led by Chief Minister Conrad Sangma is proactive only in corruption and scams.
Marak, who will lock horns with Chief Minister Conrad Sangma in the assembly elections from South Tura constituency, took a jibe at the CM for listing the success stories of the NPP-led MDA government over the last five years.
“How could the CM take pride in saying that through the Jal Jeevan Mission scheme, it connected 2.5 lakh plus households with water pipe connections from 4000 in 2018? The reality is that the NPP government stands on a shaken ground between warfare of allegations of falsities regarding the JJM implementation,” he said.
He said in Rongjeng’s Imamsdrop village, the villagers were not only robbed of drinking water but the village Sordar of Imsamdrop had also accused the PHE department of tricking them into believing the project was completed. “Many households in South Tura are also deprived of drinking water,” Marak said.
The South Tura candidate said the CM’s claim of ensuring peace in the state was false. “CM has taken his false claims to a next level by saying he was committed to ensuring that peace and tranquility prevail in the state. The recent Phulbari clash where the NPP MDC was directly involved and the institutional attack on youth and teachers who protested for their rights peacefully in the streets paint the real story about CM Conrad Sangma,” he stated.
Marak further said that the CM has failed miserably in not being able to provide employment opportunities, to improve the standard of the health sector and denying quality education to children through the dilapidated education system and poor infrastructure.
