In a dramatic development, former Lok Sabha speaker PA Sangma quit the NCP, saying he was hurt by his party's failure to back his presidential candidature.
A Garo tribal from Meghalaya, Sangma said, “The disinclination of the NCP to endorse my candidature amounts to a denial of the aspirations of the tribals of the country.
I cannot ignore the feelings of the tribals that Raisina Hill should not continue to be a distant dream for them.” Swamy, who described the former speaker as a close friend, said Sangma invited him to his house to say that he felt insulted after hearing suggestive rumours about him.u00a0
