SHILLONG, JUL 7: The Jaintia Students’ Union (JSU) Jowai Circle on Tuesday urged the Meghalaya Rural Bank to observe the officially declared local holidays...
Arts and Culture Minister Sanbor Shullai has stressed that conversion to Christianity does not mean that one cannot participate in indigenous cultural practices.
Activists of KSU went and closed down such banks and offices located in the different parts of Shillong for disrespecting the important festival of the indigenous people.
During the festival, revellers were seen participating in a ritualistic expression to overcome the destructive forces of nature including diseases and an invocation to God for a good harvest.
