  No road, No Vote

There would be no elections in nine villages in the Mairang constituency of East Khasi Hills, as a mark of protest against the negligence of the government for not repairing a six kilometre road from Laitarted to Nonglyput. The Hynnniewtrep Youth Council along with the residents of these villages have taken the task upon themselves in repairing the road. These villages include Pyrda, Pyrdathymmai, Nongmynsain, Nonglyput, Sohksar (A), Sohksar Sohkhwai, Rimshylla and Khyllem.

 

The Sorkar of village Nongmynsain Nonglyput, Biren Nongrum has said the people were compelled to take upon themselves because of the adamant attitude of the government and also public leaders and representatives.
