Dorbar seeks DC’s help to remove illegal structures

SHILLONG: The Dorbar Shnong of Kench’s Trace, Oxford Hill and Rilbong informed the Deputy Commissioner on Wednesday that the demolition work of the illegal structures on the Government land at Laban Last Stop is yet to be carried out. The Dorbar also sought the intervention of the Deputy Commissioner in this regard.
The structures were supposed to be dismantled on Tuesday as per the discussion which the Dorbar had with the Deputy Commissioner in his chamber on April 27.
In a memorandum submitted to East Khasi Hills Deputy Commissioner, the Dorbar Shnong said that demolition of the permanent structures on the Government land has not been carried out since the concerned party responsible for the construction of the structures declined to exercise the resolution of the executive committee held recently to demolish the same for reasons best known to the party/individual.
“In order to avoid any untoward incident and confrontation with the concerned party, the Dorbar Shnong refrained itself from demolishing the structures and hereby requests that action be taken to remove them,” the Dorbar Shnong stated in a letter to the Deputy Commissioner on Wednesday.
