SHILLONG, Jan 24: The Meghalaya Human Rights Commission (MHRC) in coordination with the District Administration and the District and Sessions Judge, West Garo Hills & East Garo Hills District successfully conducted the Camp Sittings in both the Districts from January 17 to 20.
As many as 46 cases were taken up during its 4-day session in which both the Members of the Commission, PJP Hanaman and B Giri, were present during the session along with the officials and staff of the Commission.
The aim of the Commission for conducting the Camp was to ease the burden of the litigants for attending the hearing of their cases all the way from Garo Hills Districts to Shillong, in which they have to incur huge expenses.
Large numbers of petitioners/litigants attended the Camp and were accordingly addressed of their grievances as deemed fit and proper.
