In a statement issued here on Wednesday, GHSMC general secretary Augustine Marak said the sit-in demonstration would be discontinued on September 29 and 30 and added that the committee has also decided to hold non-cooperation movement (NCM) on September 10 and 11 in the entire Garo Hills from 5 am to 5 pm.
