The Voice of the People Party (VPP) has formally named Dr Batskhem Myrboh as its official candidate for the upcoming by-election to the Shillong parliamentary constituency.
Congress president and former Shillong MP Vincent Pala said his party will not discuss the Shillong Lok Sabha by‑poll until a month after the death of late MP Dr Ricky AJ Syngkon, criticising the Voice of the People Party (VPP) for moving early.
Voice of the People Party spokesperson Dr Batskhem Myrboh on Tuesday accepted his nomination for the Shillong Lok Sabha byelection, saying he was grateful to the party and would uphold its “ideology, discipline, principle and vision for the state” in the contest necessitated by the demise of former MP and founding leader late Dr Ricky AJ Syngkon.
