Sangma Favours Cong-Led Govt

Lok Sabha Speaker P A Sangma yesterday said with the AIADMK, Trinamool Congress and the Samata Party expressing reservations on joining the government, the BJP and its allies with a strength of 250 would not be able to provide a cohesive coalition. On the contrary, the Congress with its experience could give a stable government with the help of its allies and UF, which together had crossed the 260-seat mark, Sangma said.
