The People's Democratic Movement (PDM) was a political party in the north-east Indian state of Meghalaya. Founded in 1997, the PDM successfully won three seats in the 1998 Meghalaya Legislative Assembly election. The parties' three representatives were: Martin Danggo, Elston Roy Kharkongor and Cyprian R Sangma.[1] The party failed to win any seats in the 2003 Assembly election and in December 2003 merged with the Indian National Congress (INC).[2]
