Meanwhile, GHADC authorities have issued show cause to three leaders of the NGEA for allegedly violating their own organisation’s constitution as well as going against the interest of the GHADC.
The show-cause notice issued earlier on May 27 by Principal Secretary to the Executive Committee, HA Sangma, named NGEA president Senora Johny Arengh, secretary Brithen M Sangma and joint secretary Flaming B Marak. The show cause accused them of allowing one Rakie Sangma, who is not a member of the association or an employee, to speak flaring words in support of their association on May 26. It also alleged that Sangma has been reported to be politically affiliated.
It directed the leaders to give satisfactory reply to the said allegations within five days of the receipt of the notice failing which, it warned of initiating necessary legal action as per the provisions of law.
Meanwhile, reacting to the notice issued to them, the NGEA downplayed the charges and instead demanded the removal of Principal Secretary HA Sangma.
The organisation claimed that they were not doing anything wrong and only demanding what is rightfully due to them and maintained that there is nothing illegal about the public and any organisation coming to support them.
