SHILLONG: Taking note of the prevailing scam in the GHADC, the ANVC (B) has demanded that the present Executive Committee (EC) in the Council should be immediately dissolved and the CEM Purno K Sangma and his deputy Brigady N Marak should resign from their respective posts.
“We have decided to hold a road blockade on August 29 in the whole of Garo Hills if there is no response to our demands,” the ANVC (B) said in a statement issued on Sunday.
The outfit said they are shocked to see that the Deputy CEM had denied his involvement in the misappropriation of funds.
“Everyone is aware about the malpractices which are going on in the Council,” the ANVC (B) said.
Earlier, GHADC Deputy CEM, had clarified that the allegations of amassing huge sums of money through malpractices and corruption against him by ANVC (B) was baseless as he was put in charge of Civil Works and the Land and Revenue department of the GHADC only on August 8, 2012.
“The allegations of ANVC (B) accusing me of facilitating illegal settlement of toll gates and coal markets is false,” Marak said and added that that it was not possible for him to have indulged in the alleged malpractices given the length of his tenure in the Land and Revenue department of the GHADC.
