G uwahati, May 3 : Activities to form the government in Meghalaya has again started gaining momentum. The NCP led Meghalaya Progressive alliance (MPA) has again staked claim to form the government. Meghalaya is under president s rule and the assembly is placed under suspended animation. MPA government had survived the trust vote with speaker casting vote in favour of the government. Former Chief Minister JD Rymbai is elected the new leader of MPA. A ten-member delegation of MPA staked their claim before Governor Ranjit Shekhar Mooshahary to form a new government on Thursday. MPA submitted a list of 27 members, excluding Assembly Speaker Bindo M Lanong. In April, MPA has staked claim to form government. Congress led Meghalaya United Alliance (MUA) has however criticized the move of the MPA. AICC general secretary in charge of North-East Luizinho Faleiro who is in Shillong said that MPA has no right to stake its claim to form the government again as it is already in a clear minority. It should not create another constitutional crisis in the State.” He added that MUA would be able to form a new government after revocation of President s rule. “With 31 MLAs, we (MUA) reiterated our claim before the Governor to form government,” he said.
