The North-Eastern Hill University Students' Union (NEHUSU) and the Khasi Students' Union (KSU), NEHU Unit, have asked the non-teaching staff to defy all directions issued by the Vice Chancellor Prof PS Shukla and registrar Col Omkar Singh.
The Khasi Students' Union (KSU) on Thursday said thousands of its members will not hesitate to go to jail if the state government dare to bulldoze its way to introduce railway line in the Khasi and Jaintia region in absence of effective and strong anti-influx mechanisms like the inner line permit (ILP).
The state government has assured to consult all stakeholders during the framing of the Rules to the Meghalaya Investment Promotion & Facilitation Act, 2024.
The proposed amendments were revealed following a crucial meeting between Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma with the Khasi Students’ Union (KSU), in the presence of Deputy Chief Minister in-charge Home Prestone Tynsong on Tuesday, to address concerns raised on the Act by the union.
“We are not satisfied with the outcome of the meeting (that lasted) for nearly an hour and a half. We told the government your verbal assurance cannot be accepted as we still remain apprehensive and if the Act (is allowed) to remain like this then it should be scrapped immediately,” KSU general secretary Donald V Thabah told reporters after the meeting.
