Addressing the media on Thursday, KAS president Dr DRL Nonglait said, “We have decided to urge the Government of India through the Ministry of Home Affairs to initiate necessary steps to introduce an official Bill in the next session of the Parliament as that will be a step for bringing Khasi into the 8th Schedule to the Constitution of India. The government has to amend the 8th Schedule for inclusion of any language to be part of the other Eighth scheduled languages.”
