Former NPP leader Likha Saaya appointed as Arunachal NCP president

First Published: 19th December, 2023 10:03 IST

Likha Saaya, who resigned from the NPP two weeks ago, has now joined the Nationalist Congress Party as the state president with immediate effect.

Former Arunachal State working President of the National People’s Party (NPP), Likha Saaya, has been appointed as the president of Arunachal’s Nationalist Congress Party – Ajit Pawar faction.

Likha Saaya had resigned from the NPP two weeks ago.

Speaking to reporters during a press conference, Saaya said, “I joined the NPP to serve my constituency and state, drawn to its pro-northeast ideology. However, due to the reasons outlined in my resignation, I sought a better alternative. I aimed to build and strengthen NPP in Arunachal but lacked the necessary authority and support from the central command of NPP.”

“In pursuit of my dedication to serving my people, I found the NCP to be a more suitable alternative. With the opportunity to lead the NCP Arunachal unit as its state president, I believe I can take on the complete responsibility of developing the party in the state”, he added.

“This decision was necessary to ensure that the hard work of not only myself but also my supporters does not go to waste, especially when faced with a lack of seriousness in the leadership of the party we were with”, Saaya stated.
