Relocation
After combined groups from Rongjeng in East Garo Hills opposed the proposed set-up of a bonded warehouse and a wine store near a school in the area, the DC has assured that the former would be shifted to a new location. The assurance from the DC came following a meeting held between the district administration, Excise officials and the opposing groups along with the UCPF on Thursday.
