Forum urges CM to set up testing labs in Tura

TURA: The New Tura Development Forum (NTDF) has appealed to Chief Minister Conrad Sangma to set up sufficient testing labs in the state to monitor the possible spread of COVID-19.
In a memorandum to Sangma on Tuesday, the forum, while reminding that the facility is only available in Shillong, urged that the testing lab is also set up in Tura and the same should be made available in all hospitals and health centres across Garo Hills.
The forum pointed out the lack of various other medical facilities in Tura and urged the government to take necessary measures.
