Both filed their nominations at the office of the Returning Officer here accompanied by family members, friends and party workers.

Stating that P A Sangma had worked tirelessly for over 40 years, Conrad said he would carry on with the vision his father had on the demand for a separate Garoland state.

On the other hand, the Chief Minister's wife and Mahendraganj legislator said as Purno A Sangma's chapter is closed, the people of Garo Hills have to move in a new direction.
