SHILLONG, AUG 30: The Meghalaya High Court on Wednesday expressed dismay over the delay to resolve the issue pertaining to the proposed relocation of the 342 families of Sweepers’ Colony from Them Iew Mawlong.
“This matter has still not been resolved despite negotiations between the State and the respondents,” the Division Bench said in its order passed after hearing petitions filed by the State and the Harijan Panchayat Committee (HPC).
The order said that the Advocate-General had submitted that the State is contemplating a request by the respondents to provide some additional space. “For such purpose, the State requests an adjournment of the matter for four weeks,” it added.
The next hearing on the matter will be held on September 29.
