Meghalaya CM terms Congress walk-out episode as ‘insult’ to Guv’s chair
SHILLONG, March 8, 2019: Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma on Friday termed the Congress' decision to boycott the Governor's ceremonial address on the first day of the Budget Session as 'inappropriate' and an 'insult' to the Chair.
"But being absent or boycotting a ceremonial process, which has never been done before and I think this is the first time, was inappropriate," Conrad told media persons here today.
While refusing to comment on the recent controversial post tweeted by Meghalaya Governor, Tathagata Roy, Conrad said that the tweet went out from his personal account and not from the Governor's official handle.
"So I am not commenting on what he said as an individual and neither am I here to argue about whether it is correct," he said.
