'Notably, Conrad Sangma is the National president of NPP.
Addressing a campaign for the 2022 elections at Kshetri Mayai Leikai under Kshetrigao Constituency today, Conrad Sangma continued that NPP is one among the eight political parties which have been identified as National political party in India.
Saying that NPP is the only political party which works in the interest of the North East people, Conrad Sangma claimed that other parties don't recognise the genuine problem of the region.
Promoting the identity of every indigenous community of the region is also the topmost priority of the NPP, the Meghalaya Chief Minister said and reminded that it was the NPP that voiced its opposition to the Citizenship Amendment Bill at the Parliament in the first place.

After paying attention to the Opposition which was spearheaded by the NPP, the Central Government gave room for negotiation and incorporated many provisions in the Act (CAA) to keep the identity of the region intact, he claimed.
Continuing that the NPP will always work for the development of the North East, Conrad Sangma appealed to the people of Manipur to extend support in strengthening the NPP.
Conrad K Sangma also exuded confidence that Sheikh Noorul Hassan, who is young and dynamic, would surely win the 2022 election in Kshetrigao AC.
