Allotment of 50% job reservation for the Khasi and Jaintia communities is one of the suggestions submitted by the Khun Hynniewtrep National Awakening Movement (KHNAM) to the Expert Committee on State Reservation Policy on Thursday.
In a letter to the Chief Secretary DP Wahlang, KHNAM president Pyndapbor Saibon said the party has submitted additional proposal for inclusion in the proposed amended State Reservation Policy (SRP) along with justification.
The minister also informed that the Cabinet has also approved the proposal for enhancement of the financial powers to the DGP, IGP, DIGP, SP under Schedule IV of the Meghalaya Delegation of Financial Powers Rule, 2006.
The cabinet has also modified OM issued in 1974 with regards to the vacancies reserved for Garo categories, henceforth, the vacancies that arise for the Garo category will be filled by candidates from Garo candidates from within the State. The earlier OM had allowed Garos from outside the State to fill the vacancies.
