MEPA to continue with boycott of CM

SHILLONG: The Meghalaya Editors’ and Publishers’ Association (MEPA) in its meeting held here on Tuesday has unanimously decided to continue indefinite boycott of news, views, publicity materials including advertisements etc., concerning Chief Minister Mukul Sangma.
The chief minister is yet to respond to the request letters of MEPA to withdraw his derogatory statements against media in the State Legislative Assembly even after one month’s time.
Certain statements made by the chief minister on March 10, 2015 in the Assembly have maligned the media and will remain as a permanent blot in the Assembly records if he does not modify or withdraw the impugned statement.
