NDPP's Neiphiu Rio and NPP's Conrad Sangma will be sworn in as chief ministers of Nagaland and Meghalaya respectively today.
Neiphiu Rio will be leading an all-party government with no opposition in Nagaland even as the Centre continues talks with former rebels of the NSCN(IM) to finalise a long-awaited peace accord in the border state. The NDPP-BJP coalition, in the recently concluded Nagaland polls, won 37 seats in the 60-member Assembly.
