Shillong, May 3: The state government is taking action on the law and order problems, according to Chief Minister Conrad Sangma.
The arrests of the KSU activists involved in murders in Ichamati and Mawlai Mawroh followed a series of petrol bomb attacks on goverment buildings and vehicles.
Speaking to reporters on Friday, the chief minister said, “There were certain incidents that took place and the government was firm in ensuring that whatever necessary steps that had to be taken to arrest the individuals, who are involved in certain incidents, was based on pure evidence and facts”.
“And because of that we did expect that there would be some reaction. So we should be very clear that this is a reaction to a certain reaction or certain action that took place and therefore, we were not surprised as such, we are working towards ensuring that none of these incidents should happen and the police have taken further steps but I don’t want to go into the details,” Conrad said.
