“Don’t allow people from outside impose CAA and NRC on you,” TMC chief Mamata Banerjee said at the election rally in Meghalaya.
She further urged the people of Meghalaya to vote for the TMC “to bring change and take the hill state on the path of progress”.

Speaking at the same rally, TMC national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee urged the people of Meghalaya to put into power those who do not serve “their masters in Delhi or Guwahati”.
