BJP ignored ILP implementation, inclusion of Khasi, Garo in Eighth Schedule: Meghalaya Deputy CM

The Hindu  

Meghalaya Deputy Chief Minister Prestone Tynsong has claimed that the BJP-led Central government ignored demands for implementation of the Inner Line Permit in the northeastern State, and the inclusion of Khasi and Garo languages in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution. The National People’s Party vice-president said he was saddened by the way the BJP “played politics” with issues concerning the people of Meghalaya, and hoped that voters will “punish” the saffron party. Mr. Tynsong said Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma had led delegations to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah on several occasions in the past, urging them to consider the two demands. The senior NPP leader asserted that people will “punish the BJP and its hopes of forming government in Meghalaya will remain a distant dream”.
