Sawkmie moves PM to drop CAA, apply ILP

SHILLONG: Opposition Chief Whip and Congress MLA PT Sawkmie on Friday petitioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi asking him to reconsider and recall the CAA in the country.
In a letter to the prime minister, Sawkmie said that the Act must be reconsidered in view of the protest and agitations taking place across the country.
He also said that the concern of the European Union on the Act has sent a wrong signal about India’s relationship with other countries besides affecting the image of the country globally. Meanwhile, the Mawlai MLA has also urged Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah to respect the views and sentiments of the people of Meghalaya and implement ILP in the state at the earliest.
