Shillong, April 26: The Joint Action Committee (JAC) comprising  Meghalaya People’s Social Organisation (MPSO) Ri-Bhoi, Meghalaya People’s United Front (MPUF) and Ri Bhoi Youth Organisation (RBYO) on Wednesday met Power Minister, Abu Taher Mondal to highlight on the issue of erratic power supply and unscheduled load shedding in Ri Bhoi district.

While speaking to reporters, MPSO, Ri-Bhoi president, LM Wanniang said that the load shedding in the district was worse since no fixed timing is followed for it.
