SHILLONG: The four-member sub-committee will hold its final sitting on June 15 before submitting its report to the special committee constituted by the State Government to pursue the inclusion of the Khasi language in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution.
“We have completed the compilation of the report,” Matsiewdor War, Director, Arts and Culture, said here on Wednesday.
According to her, the special committee will take the final call on the report to be submitted by the sub-committee before pursuing the matter with Centre.
“The basic assignment which was given  to the sub-committee was to try to find out the additional criteria which are required to be complied for the language to find a place in the Eight Schedule,” War, who is the convener of the special committee, said.
The other members of the sub-committee are MBoSE Executive Chairman EP Kharbhih, Dr Sylvanus Lamare from the Sahitya Akademi and former member of Sahitya Akademi S. Quotient Sumer.
