Editor,
The United Democratic Party (UDP), a regional based party which often boasts and calls itself as the so-called kingmaker in any government, should at least have some shame left of having high hopes.
Comments in various social media platforms showed that the UDP is the most ridiculed party for all the ills and the lack of responsibility within the present government.
In Pynursla constituency for example when Mr. Nehru Suting stood and fought from the UDP ticket against the sitting MLA and Deputy Chief Minister Prestone Tynsong of the NPP, there were elements like Banalari Lyngdoh, Allantry Dkhar and some more within the inner circle who allowed his defeat and were in close coordination with the NPP to make the NPP candidate win by a margin of 2000 plus votes.
The treachery by the members of the UDP has gradually increased in this coming election. The loss of the enquiry report on the rice scam is one set that shows this party has no soul left to smuggle food meant for the poor.
Therefore like the NPP the UDP too should be shown the door in the forthcoming Assembly polls
