Chief Minister’s year 2 anniversary programme curiously rescheduled to 10 A.M from 4 .P.M
Dimapur, May 23 : The fracture within the NPF camp could become even more apparent on Tuesday even as a huge number of supporters of Neiphiu Rio, who was recently suspended by the party, are all set to welcome him at the
airport on his return from Delhi.
Reliable sources have informed that the three-time chief minister, and present Lok Sabha member, would be addressing his supporters outside the airport. Dimapur district administration also confirmed this to Eastern Mirror on Monday.
The day also coincides with the 2nd year anniversary of the present DAN government. In a curious turn of events, the DAN leadership has re-scheduled the anniversary program to 10 A.M which they had earlier slated at 4 pm. Rio’s flight schedule has him landing at 12.35 pm.
According to an NPF legislator, the party whip has also issued a “verbal directive” to all its legislators cautioning them against attending the event at the airport. After the reception, and address at the airport, the supporters of Rio would be escorting him to his residence at Sovima village.
