Shillong: The Meghalaya BJP is holding off on naming its candidate for the upcoming Shillong parliamentary bypoll. Party leadership confirmed the move hinges on the completion of the Special Intensive Revision of the electoral rolls. The party intends to kick off its campaign immediately once the new voter list is finalized.
Party spokesperson Mariahom Kharkrang stated, “Electoral rolls-o ka·enggipa Special Intensive Revision (SIR)-ni kamko matchota ja·mansa by-election-ko ong·atnaba gnang.” The Election Commission has yet to set a firm date for the vote. The party expects to provide its candidate list only after the commission confirms the fresh data.
Kharkrang dismissed concerns about the delayed announcement causing campaign hurdles. He noted that the party has its internal machinery prepared and organized. Once the name drops, local units across the constituency will begin their work without missing a beat.
