TURA: Danakgre A’king Nokma Enila Ch Marak has accused the Garo Hills Autonomous Council (GHADC) of transforming land belonging to the A’king into ‘Khas Mahals’ without the A’king Nokma’s consent.
Marak questioned the authenticity of the map recently submitted by the council and claimed that the original map prepared under the British Government shows areas under Danakgre A’king include Tura Peak Rongnokma in the east, Damalgre A’king in the west, Me’gonggre A’king in the north and Sangsanggre A’king up to the Sangsang stream in the south.
Enila further stated that later, some parts of the Danakgre A’king including Tura Peak Rongnokma in the east to Araimile-Gonggadamal stream and Gandrak Stream at Chandmary in the North to Sangsang Stream in Dobasipara were transformed into Khas mahals or Mauza X-1 by the GHADC.
According to Enila, Tura Town and forest reserves were created from within the A’king but there is no question of dividing the A’king. She would also resume the signing of documents of the general public in matters relating to the A’king.
