ITANAGAR, Dec 11: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday received a major boost in Anjaw district with the induction of former Congress functionary Gungso Kri and 23 opposition members from Longling village.
Women and Child Development minister Dasanglu Pul in a social media post said Gungso Kri, who previously served as the vice president of the Congress Party’s Anjaw unit, formally joined the BJP, expressing faith in the party’s policies and its development-oriented approach for Arunachal Pradesh.
Pul welcomed Kri into the party fold and said his support would strengthen ongoing efforts towards welfare and progress in the region.
In a separate development, 23 opposition members from Longling also joined the BJP on Thursday.
The group, led by Sobrab Longling and outgoing Gram Panchayat Member (Independent) Lobasha Longling, announced their decision in the presence of party leaders.
Pul said the induction of the entire group has “virtually brought the opposition in Longling to an end,” adding that the people of the village have shown overwhelming support for the BJP. She noted that the mass joining further reinforces the party’s commitment to work for development, stability and unity in the area.
“With renewed commitment and collective resolve, we look forward to taking Longling and Anjaw on the path of inclusive growth,” she said.
