Meghalaya Assembly Elections 2023: Key Constituencies


South Tura


 


The first on the list is South Tura, where Chief Minister Conrad Sangma and BJP's Bernard N Marak are engaged in combat. For this position, the Congress has nominated Brenzield Ch Marak.


West Shillong


The BJP's state chief Ernest Mawrie, one of the party's most recognisable figures in the state, is running in West Shillong, which is ranked second on the list. The incumbent NPP's candidate, Mohendro Rapsang, is running against Iwan Maria of the TMC.


Sutnga Saipung


The seat becomes significance because Vincent Pala, the state chairman of the Congress, is running from the Sutnga Saipung constituency for the first time. The political climate of Meghalaya may be significantly impacted by Pala's performance in the elections.
