March 18, 2014 21:04

United Democratic Party working president Paul Lyngdoh today filed his nomination for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls after having secured the support of one regional party and despite the reluctance of two other outfits to back his electoral bid.

Lyngdoh has the support of National People's Party in the Shillong constituency but the Hill State People's Democratic Party and Khun Hynniewtrep National Awakening Movement are reportedly upset over his candidature.

The latter two parties are more keen on PBM Basaiawmoit as their candidate of choice.
