KHNAM skips roster meeting
Shillong, May 29: Khun Hynniewtrep National Awakening Movement (KHNAM) has skipped the meeting on roster system chaired by Minister in-charge Law Ampareen Lyngdoh, held on Monday as the invitation came very late.
In a statement, KHNAM president Pyndap Saibon said, “It is very unprofessional for the government to issue a letter hours before the scheduled meeting, this is however not important to us but a mere observation. The Party has decided that we will not be attending the meeting.”
He said the party had already sent a letter to the Law Minister and Chairman of the Committee. “We have conveyed our stand that, there is a need to relook the State Reservation Policy 1972 and its subsequent O.M and also to ensure that Roster Registers be maintained with effect from May 2022 so that implementation of the Roster System can be prospective, we stand by the two demands made by the party and we will not compromise either of them. Therefore attending a meeting for discussion does not arise,” Saibon said.
