The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is ready to give a “red carpet welcome” to former Meghalaya Chief Minister Mukul Sangma and Shillong MP Vincent Pala, if the duo decides to join the saffron party.
This was stated by senior Meghalaya BJP leader and MLA from South Shillong constituency Sanbor Shullai on November 30.

“If Sangma and Pala are willing to come and join the BJP, we will ensure that they are given a red carpet welcome because both are very seasoned political leaders of the state,” Sanbor Shullai said.
Earlier, Mukul Sangma had rubbished the reports and speculations about possibilities of him joining the BJP.
“I can be bold and frank; yes, there were meetings but that was long time back. In 2019-2020, I had a series of meetings, because they (BJP) wanted to have meetings at some senior ministers level in the run-up for the 2023 general election,” the former Meghalaya CM had said.
