Shillong: The political earthquake shaking the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal is coming for Meghalaya. Opposition leader Mukul Sangma admits the turmoil at the top will hurt the party in his home state. He is keeping his options open. Sangma refused to commit to a firm path forward for the Meghalaya unit.
He described the state of Indian politics as volatile. The former Chief Minister spoke about the friction hitting the system today. He stated, "The current national political landscape as abnormal and unprecedented, where parties are compelled to navigate situations unlike anything seen before in India’s democratic history."
Sangma swatted down rumors about members jumping ship back to the Congress. He claims those stories are just media noise. No formal exit plans sit on the table for his committee. Still, the chatter about the 2028 elections keeps building in the halls of power.
The TMC became the primary opposition in 2021 after twelve members broke away from Congress. Now, five MLAs must hold the line. Sangma says the team remains united for now. He warns that leaders must watch the shifting ground before they make a move.
