JOWAI: Amlarem legislator and Parliamentary Secretary in charge Sports and Youth Affairs, Stephanson Mukhim expressed concern over degradation of environment, especially contamination of rivers in Jaintia Hills.
Mukhim, who inaugurated the SSA Kharkhana Upper Primary School on Thursday, observed that lower stream of River Myntdu is highly contaminated and does not support aquatic life anymore.
“The State government is taking all necessary steps to revive the river and I hope it will again house aquatic life and benefit the people living along the river bank,” Mukhim said while urging the local people to protect and conserve the environment in the area.
Earlier, Mukhim inaugurated the school building in the presence of West Jaintia Hills Deputy Commissioner among others.
The school building was constructed at a cost of Rs. 6.18 lakh.
