 NONGSTOIN: After being denied permission by the district administration to hold fast-unto-death at Shillong, Pynskhemlang Nongshlong, the lad from Rambrai in West Khasi Hills, is now planning to move the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) in New Delhi. Nongshlong, who is planning to visit the national capital shortly, will lodge a complaint with the rights body.
