SHILLONG:  Even after criticism from several quarters, there is only one woman representative in the jumbo sized committee to empower headmen headed by former Chief Minister DD Lapang.
As per the notification issued on March 30, the president, Lympung, Ki Kynthei is the lone woman member in the Committee.
Earlier, one of the members of the Committee, Toki Blah criticized the formation of committee by stating that there should have been adequate representation of women.
Blah had also suggested that the Committee should have been inclusive  since there are areas like Jail Road, Polo Bazar and others governed by non indigenous headmen.
