Ever since the former Chief Minister Mukul Sangma from the Meghalaya Congress has switched over to the Trinamool party with his 12 sitting MLAs, he has left no stone unturned to slam the present Government.  He has slammed the Conrad Sangma led government in the state for allegedly failing to take action against illegal coal mining. 

Recently, Dr. Mukul Sangma made a surprise visit to Eraaning Coal Depot, Rongara Siju, South Garo Hills. Mukul Sangma has claimed that rampant illegal coal mining in Meghalaya continues unabated, especially in South Garo Hills district.
