There is a common belief, that money change hands, during elections, that votes can be bought by the contesting candidates, belonging to which ever party. Also that contestants have to lure the voters by arranging feasts that goes on for days together.

However this time, there is a case of unprecedented exception, which is somewhat the other way round. Geogre Lyngdoh contesting from the Umroi constituency of Ri Bhoi has started his campaign, being the son of former Legislative Assembly Speaker E.K.Mawlong, a  who had also represented Umroi.

 

To the surprise of the contesting candidate, Geogre Lyngdoh, the member of the Mahila Congress of Umroi, handed over money to the candidate, collected from his supporters in Umroi, to help meet his elections expenses. The women folk appealed to Umroi voters not to be influenced by money power.

HYC, HANM oppose Toll Gate

The Hynniewtrep Achick National Movement (HANM) and the Hynniewtrep Youth Council (HYC) have strongly opposed the motive of the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) to set up two toll gates in East and West Jaintia hills Districts.

The reason for this opposed is the unsatisfactory work done regarding the expansion of the highway. The size of the highway remains the same but the NHAI has only been repairing side drains besides adding black topping in repairing pot holes. Both the union want the HNAI to expand the roads where ever possible as Jaintia Hills District is quite busy in terms of transport.
