Sounder Cajee Shifted to National People's Party

The former President of the Federation Khasi Jaintia Garo People (FKJGP) Sounder Cajee has made news as he join the National People Party (NPP), which he express the hope that NPP will lead the Government that was why he has asked his supporters to join the NPP and that he would be guided by veteran leaders. Sounder Cajee has earlier joined the BJP, hoping to get a ticket. But the ticket allotment seems to be taking time which would be difficult for him to prepare for the polls. That is the reason he resigned from the BJP and ultimately joined the NPP. Apart from Sounder Cajee many of the veteran politicians, having left the congress are accommodating themselves in the NPP camps A clear picture would however emerge by the end of the year of the candidates chosen to contest from the NPP and also the release of the official party manifest.

Sounder Cajee is keen to lock horn against Sanbor Shullai, former deputy speaker of the Meghalaya Legislative Assembly of the Laban Constituency.

When BJP targeted to win Tripura as a prestige fight to comply with it’s vow to make India communist free, ruling CPI-M comes out with packages and schemes to allure the voters for their sustenance in electoral politics of the country. After losing foothold in West Bengal and tough challenge in Kerala for past five years, CPI-M has concentrated in Tripura. The political observers indicate, since no where CPI-M is in power, it is oblivious for Tripura government to provide financial support more to the party that enlarged the ambit of corruption in the state. The left front rule till 2008 since 1993 in Tripura was by large spotless and Manik Sarkar government had a pro people approach. Losing in power at West Bengal in 2011 assembly elections, CPI-M in Tripura started getting deteriorated and before 2013 party leaders and their committed bureaucrats charged with serious corruption allegations.

Misappropriation of MGNREGS fund, massive corruption in job distribution and party’s involvement in Non Banking Financial Company’s (NBFC) scam in Tripura damaged the fame and glory of communists. In the last election in 2013, the party in power directly used a section of state civil service officers and lower grade employees for manipulating the electioneering. Even CPI-M intruded their large number of cadres in opposition’s rally when Prime Minister or any other central leader of Congress came for addressing public rally. It made a sense of satisfaction to the opposition and it also confused the central leadership but it was not reflected in the voting.
