SHILLONG: The All Jaintia Youth Welfare Organisation (AJYWO) has urged the state government, district councils and citizens to take the issue of NRC seriously and check illegal flow of migrants into the state.
AJYWO president MH Dkhar said the state government should come up with effective laws to check influx. “The district and village councils and people should be vigilant in their respective villages and not allow immigrants,” he added.
He appealed to the indigenous community to stand united against the growing concern over illegal migrants.
Checking of trading, labour licences
The Meghalaya People’s United Front-East Jaintia Hills district (MPUF-EJHD) led by president Michael Chyrmang demanded that the JHADC should inspect trading and labour licences of non-tribals in East Jaintia Hills, especially in Lad Rymbai, Soo Kilo, cement factories and the adjacent areas.
The non-tribals operate business without trading and labour licences while others do not renew their documents, a statement issued here said.
The organisation informed that CEM Madonbai Rymbai and EM in charge of trade Laitsing Shylla said they would take up the issue.MPUF-EJHD has also raised concerns over influx as a result of the NRC process in Assam.
