Dark Horse wins Tura race: Saffronising the eminence grise-the climax of the GHADC poll

Syllad | The Rising MeghalayaApril 18, 2021

No man puts new wine into old bottles? Almost all the old MDCs have been replaced by the new ones. CEM’s post has been usurped by the underdog independent candidate. Even former CEM is not spared by the grim reaper. Is it a sign that ‘Money talks’ does not work much in the GHADC election? Fair and square share of voters seems to have satisfied the citizens.

Despite the unfulfilling of the employees’ due salaries, the ruling party gave a tough battle against the rivals. However, saffronizing the eminence grise is the very climax of the poll. Macbeth’s high vaulting ambition has taken a toll on Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma as he grieves his inglorious defeat and humiliation in his own jurisdiction?

Riding coattails falls apart seeing the valorous enemies. Unpaid employees are no longer amused by mere bread and circuses rather they are aware of Turkish voting for Christmas. The dark horse wins the race.

BJP’s mantra has worked well- the manifesto, a talisman for Bernard Marak’s maiden triumph in one of the toughest battlegrounds? Not a single soul has a slightest idea of the inflorescence of lotus in a hill station? Carpetbagger politics still prevails in some of the constituencies.
