SHILLONG: KHNAM has come forward to support the move of party working president Adelbert Nongrum to go for a fast-unto-death to put pressure on the State Government to give its approval to the Village Administration Bill.
“We have decided to extend support to the move of the party working president to go for fast-unto-death from Saturday,” KHNAM general secretary Batkupar Wahlang told newsmen here on Friday.
He also said that the party would not be part of the agitation since the party working president had made it clear it was his personal decision.
“We will be there to give moral support to him,” Wahlang said.
When asked if some of the party members will be part of the peaceful agitation, KHNAM general secretary said that this will depend on the personal decision of the individual members.
Meanwhile, Wahlang urged upon the State Government to pass the bill at the earliest to end the current stalemate.
