The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Nagaland today clarified that the Party has not finalised seat sharing agreement with any parties so far for the upcoming Nagaland Assembly Election..
“The BJP Parliamentary Board has not finalised the seat Sharing Agreement with any party as yet and therefore the decision for pre-poll alliance has not been taken as yet,” Co-Convenor BJP Election Management Committee Mmhonlumo Kikon said in a statement.
The statement comes against the backdrop of the ruling Naga People’s Front (NPF) claiming that the Party has agreed to “work out modalities for seat sharing” for the upcoming Nagaland Assembly election.
“We agreed to select the teams from the respective party to work out the modalities for seat sharing,” Chief Minister TR Zeliang said on Friday after his meeting with BJP chief Amit Shah in New Delhi on January 25.
According to Mmhonlumo, BJP is “in the process of arriving at an agreement and the decision will be declared at the appropriate time.” “All speculations about possible permutations and combinations remain just that: speculations,” he added.
In this connection, Mmhonlumo further asserted that till the “alliance is officially announced by the BJP no news about an alliance sans seat sharing have any real bearing or basis.”
