SHILLONG, MAY 19: United Democratic Party (UDP) suggested to the Chief Executive Member (CEM) of the Khasi Hills Autonomous District Council (KHADC) Ardent M Basaiawmoit to use his constitutional position and stop the proposed setting up of the designated camp for the ANVC(B) in West Khasi hills district before blood are shed.
UDP working president Paul Lyngdoh told a news conference on Monday.“We urged the CEM to first use his constitutional position by convening a meeting of all the Syiems (traditional heads) in West Khasi Hills, since the region falls under the KHADC.
Basaiawmoit had recently said that he was ready to shed his blood but oppose the give even an inch of the land in Khasi land for setting up the ANVC (B) designated camp.
Lyngdoh said, “The CEM is well within his power to call and convene the meeting with all the heads of the Himas and instruct them not to allow the setting up of the ANVC(B) camp in any parts of the region.”He said the UDP urges the CEM to convene the executive committee meeting and take this decision as it will be a wise decision that will not lead to unnecessary blood bath.
Lyngdoh also informed that the UDP assures that the results of the Lok Sabha election will not be linked to the survival of the All Regional Parties Alliance in the KHADC.- By Our Reporter
