Shillong, Sept 10: The Conglomeration of NGOs of Chokpot expressed concern over no action has been taken against proposed coal mining activities at Parongre, Chokpot in South Garo Hills.
“Despite our repeated submission of complaint letters to various government departments, no action has been taken to address our concerns. This persistent inaction has left us with no choice but to consider stronger measures,” stated NGOs of Chokpot.
