Nagaland BJP's ally cites Hindutva for poll debacle in Manipur

STUNG by their defeat in the Lok Sabha elections, allies BJP and Nationalist Democratic Progressive Party (NDPP) in Nagaland are now washing their dirty linen in public.

-  PRASANTA MAZUMDAR

It all started after an MLA of the NDPP blamed "Hindu fanatics" and "anti-Christian" forces for the defeat of NDPP's Chumben Murry, who was the consensus candidate of ruling People's Democratic Alliance (PDA), to the Congress' 'superman' Supongmeren Jamir in the state's lone seat.

The BJP and the NDPP are two key components of the PDA. The result came as a big shock to the NDPP considering that Murry had the support of all 60 MLAs. The party felt people rejected it for aligning with the BJP, so it decided to go it alone in the Urban Local Bodies' polls which will be held after 20 years.
