SHILLONG: South Shillong MLA Sanbor Shullai convened a public meeting to resolve the issue of water crisis in Greater Laban area.
The meeting was held at Assam Club, Laban where top officials from PHE department and the Shillong Municipal Board were present besides Rangbah Shnong, secretary Shnong, Rangbah Dong and members of Dorbar Shnong, Greater Laban.
The meeting after a threadbare discussion unanimously decided to give one week to the PHE and Municipal department to resolve the water scarcity issue which crops up due to partial distribution system of water and manipulation by the keymens and plumbers of the departments, including private plumbers, failing which a PIL will be filed in the court of law by the public.
Shullai informed that a new Rs one crore proposal for additional water supply scheme to cater to the needs of the residents of Greater Lumparing and Greater Laban areas has been submitted to the government.
