Meghalaya government serving both tribals and non-tribals : Tynsong

Shillong, Oct 27 (UNI) Reaffirming that Meghalaya Democratic Alliance (MDA) government
is all out for serving both tribals and non-tribals, Deputy Chief Minister, Prestone Tynsong on
Tuesday questioned the intention of the three non-tribals who met the State Governor, Satya
Pal Malik alleging discrimination against non-tribals residing in Ichamati village under East
Khasi Hills district.
“I fail to understand why they have to go the honourable Governor. I am afraid these people
have some malign intention as far as the governance (is concern),” the Deputy Chief Minister
told reporters
“Why these three persons went to the Governor when they should have come to the state
government or the district administration or civil sub-division,” Tynsong asked.
“We do have the administration closer to the people,” he maintained.
On inflammatory statements made in the social media by netizens on the Ichamati issue,
Tynsong request all of them to refrain from spreading rumours on the platforms.
The Deputy Chief Minister also pointed out to reports stating that even those residents in
Ichamati have said that there were no harassment done by the local people.
“From the government side I would like to request all concern please don’t add fuel in
this issue because we live together, we grow together in Meghalaya we are one. Don’t say
we are non-tribal or we are tribal. But we are one as brothers and sisters,” Tynsong said.
