He held the position until 1999, when he resigned following a no-confidence vote caused by a split in the ruling Congress Party. He was elected leader of the newly formed United Democratic Front, a coalition of his own political party, the Arunachal Congress and several others, in 2003. Only a few months later, Apang and his supporting MLAs merged with the Bharatiya Janata Party, the first time the BJP had ever ruled a state in north-eastern India. A few months after the BJP-ruled National Democratic Alliance lost power at the centre during 2004 elections, Apang returned to the Indian National Congress. In October, Congress won a majority in state assembly elections, with Apang as obtaining the Chief Minister position. He remained Chief Minister until 9 April 2007, when he resigned after pressure from other Congress MLAs led to the election of Dorjee Khandu as Congress Legislature Party leader. Apang resigned from the primary and active membership of the Congress party on February 17, 2014 (party sources said) and joined the BJP on 20 February 2014. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gegong Apang」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
