‘Opposition to retrospective roster system contempt of court’

TURA, July 3: The New Tura Development Forum (NTDF) on Monday said the failure of the government to implement the Roster System retrospectively would be tantamount to contempt of court, and urged those opposing its retrospective implementation to approach the High Court for the same.
The Forum, on behalf of the Garo community, also sought the resignation of all Garo MLAs if the government fails to solve the implementation of the Roster System amicably.
Partial collapse of PA Sangma Stadium
Meanwhile, the forum also raised the issue of the recent wall collapse at the P A Sangma stadium and questioned who is to blame for the unfortunate incident.
The forum suggested that as 90% of the cost was borne by the centre and the rest by the government from the public exchequer, the assessment of the damage, quality of work and materials used including workmanship should be done by the technical audit, schematic audit and the Public Accounts Committee from the centre.
