Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has assured Meghalaya BJP leaders that concerns raised by them regarding the relocation of the Dalit Sikh community from Them Iew Mawlong and unresolved land matters in Shillong Cantonment will be taken up for early resolution.
Cabinet Minister Sanbor Shullai has raised concerns over the exorbitant increase in land rent within Shillong Cantonment Area, questioning the violation of the right to equality compared to adjacent municipal areas.
The Shillong Cantonment has decided to issue notices to all illegal settlers at Lum Survey besides identifying areas for immediate installation of close circuit televisions (CCTVs) to keep a check on illegal activities.
