SHILLONG: Opposition Chief Whip and Congress legislator PT Sawkmie has asked the government to bring back the ordinance on Residents Act to the Assembly so that a bill in this regard can be passed in the House.
The governor has already sent back the ordinance stating that it is in conflict with the central laws.
The legislator wanted to know which part of the ordinance is in conflict with the central laws.
