" NPF has done more harm than good," stated Worthington, adding , "Election should not be conducted on the line of community, castes, creeds and religions" .
The BJP leader then asserted that if the recently concluded poll was free and fair, the BJP would have won by a huge margin in the Outer seat of Manipur.
Worthington also said that other than Congress, BJP is the only party that can penetrate in both the plains and in the hills and cited the case of Thoubal district (valley district but falls in Manipur Outer seat) .
"Due to the malpractices and manipulations, booth capturing and rigging by common enemy of all the parties, Congress has won both the seats in Manipur," rued Worthington.
The BJP leader then expressed his gratitude to the people of Ukhrul district for their supports to BJP and hailed the few thousand BJP voters of Ukhrul district as beacons
of political wisdom.
