Meghalaya NCP chief Saleng Sangma joins Cong

Congress in Garo Hills got a shot in the arm on Monday, after the lone NCP MLA, Saleng Sangma joined the grand old party.

The move virtually ends the NCP presence in Meghalaya just weeks ahead of the February 27 elections.

Saleng joined the Congress at the party headquarters in Shillong where he was welcomed by MPCC president Vincent H Pala and other party leaders.
