He however said that the block committee of the NPP are on the job and working hard.

On the support extended to his candidature by many of the coalition partners, Sangma expressed happiness and maintained that the decision of any party of the MDA coalition to put up candidate should also be respected as each and every political party has their own challenges to face.
