Dimapur, March 17 (EMN): Hinting that there should never be any more confusion on change in governance, member of Legislative Assembly Zhaleo Rio has said that the People’s Democratic Alliance (PDA) government had ‘already nailed 33-inch (nails) to settle matter in the 13th NLA which is more than the required majority.’
The legislator iterated that the PDA government led by the Nationalist Democratic Progressive Party (NDPP) was for the common Naga people with a vision to bringing about change ‘through change, progress and prosperity.’
Rio was addressing party workers during a thanksgiving programme on March 17 at the TL Angami Park. This was informed in a press release from the 5-Ghaspani-II assembly constituency press secretary on Saturday.
In his acknowledgement, praising God for the victory toward his second stint as MLA of 5-Ghaspani-II, Rio said that ‘in action it was and will always be voters who should represent the elected in a democratic system of governance.’
Thanking party workers and well wishers who empowered him to ‘carry the burdens of the constituency for the second time in a row,’ he pledged to play a pivotal role ‘according to the party’s manifesto.’
Rio recalled the sacrifice of his party’s workers which led him to be one of the only two to win by the biggest margins among NDPP candidates during the recently concluded general elections. The other being Khumu himself who was also present in the function.
MLA of 57th Thonokyu assembly constituency, Khumu was stated to have declared during the event that he, along with the rest of the PDA, was committed to bringing about change ‘for a better Nagaland.’
Prior to the programme, several organisations felicitated the two MLAs while expressing their faith in the democratically elected members to bring about change for the people.
