On being asked about several leaders quitting the party in the run-up to the Council elections, Sangma said that it is a normal and natural situation that all political parties face.

On inclusion of Non-tribals in the upcoming GHADC elections Sangma said that it was being practiced for years although it could have been and should have been addressed at that beginning.
