I have a lot of experience in the field of public service for the last many years and will help our state in every possible manner if I enter parliament,” he said.
Further he claimed that since he joined BJP from Congress the party high command had signalled him to be ready to serve the party in parliament. “Therefore as a loyal party worker, I extended support to MLA Tana Hali during the last assembly election though even I had applied for the BJP ticket and was denied,” he added.
The assembly secretary Kago Habung informed that altogether 7 BJP MLAs proposed his name. “If no one else files nomination, the result will be declared on 12th June,” he said.
