TURA: Meghalaya Chief Minister Mukul M Sangma inaugurated the Jengjal police station at Jengjal Secondary School Playground on Wednesday. He also unveiled the foundation stone for construction of the 67 km road from National Highway-51 to Bawegre via St. Anthony’s Secondary School Baljek Agal on the occasion.
The function was attended by Minister for Sports and Youth Affairs, Zenith Sangma, Forest and Environment Minister, Clement Marak, parliamentary secretaries Noverfield R Marak, Brigady N Marak and Ashahel D Shira among others.
In his inaugural address, the chief minister said creation of new police stations and outposts is a part of government’s agenda of addressing the developmental disparities across the state and bringing the administration closer to the people’s doorsteps.
Dedicating the police station to the people of the area, the chief minister said that it would immensely help the people of the area, who otherwise had to spend a lot of time and money to travel to Tura even for minor cases.
Jengjal police station will cover 53 villages up to Bajengdoba in the north and Dadenggre in the west.
On the occasion, the CM also felicitated the wholesalers and fair price shop dealers of West Garo Hills including Dadenggre Civil Sub-Division as a token of appreciation for their contribution in successful implementation of NFSA.
