Opposition leader in the Khasi Hills Autonomous District Council (KHADC), Titosstarwell Chyne, on Monday claimed that all illegal check gates were closed down during his tenure as Chief Executive Member (CEM).

A notification issued by the Secretary of the KHADC said that the Chairman Lamphrang Blah has recognized Chyne as the LO of the KHADC with effect from June 20.
