The Meghalaya Retired College Teachers’ Association (MRCTA) also condoled the demise of the former minister.
“Late Lyngdoh was a true friend of the teaching community and tried to intervene and resolve many issues of college teachers during his tenure as Cabinet Minister though he never directly dealt with education portfolio,” MRCTA said.
It conveyed its condolences to the bereaved family and wished that the members of the family will derive strength from the good work done by the late leader in this time of grief.
