Jagdish Chelani, the Deputy Commissioner of West Garo Hills, has called the statement by protestors on indefinite hunger strike led by A’chik Conscious Holistically Integrated Krima (ACHIK) as an ‘unjustified and wrong statement’ that has been made by the group wherein they have accused the district administration and the government of not responding to their demands or calling them for talks.

In a bid to ensure the safety and convenience of the local villagers, the Garo Hills State Movement Committee (GSMC), Babadam Unit, has approached the Deputy Commissioner of West Garo Hills for immediate assistance for the construction of a new Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) bridge at Chibragre.
