The ACHIK said that the desire for Tura to be declared the second capital or winter capital is a valid demand to achieve parity in terms of overall development.
ACHIK has been leading a peaceful indefinite hunger strike opposite the mini-secretariat in Tura for the past 8 days, demanding for the winter capital in Tura and retrospective implement of the job roster system.
Deputy Commissioner of West Garo Hills, Jagdish Chelani, has warned of legal repercussions if the members of A’chik Conscious Holistically Integrated Krima (ACHIK) do not end their hunger strike by Monday, saying the group does not have the permission for it and that it is illegal.
The ACHIK's hunger strike was initiated by a group of activists demanding immediate retrospective implementation of the roster system and making Tura the winter capital of Meghalaya.
The campaign will focus on reaching out to citizens across all demographics, irrespective of age, gender, or social background, recognizing the importance of diverse perspectives in creating a sustainable and equitable society.
The A'chik Conscious Holistically Integrated Krima (ACHIK) commenced an indefinite hunger strike in front of the mini-Secretariat in Tura on Friday. The strike comes in response to Chief Minister Conrad Sangma's statement on the roster system.
