Dalit Sikh families party to Shillong’s Them lew Mawlong land dispute have agreed to relocate provided the Meghalaya government agrees to a list of their demands.
Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma & Meghalaya CM Conrad Sangma signed agreement at a meeting with Home Minister Amit Shah in New Delhi Tuesday. Resolution process began in July last year.
At ThePrint’s Off the Cuff, Sangma, whose National People's Party helms coalition govt including BJP, says his party has made it very clear it wants to maintain its own identity.
The last time this matter flared up was when Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, in a very similar directive in April, called for the relocation of stray dogs in the capital.
Finance ministry says the proposed revamp will focus on structural reforms, rate rationalisation & ease of living, & will be deliberated upon in the coming weeks.
The project is meant to be a ‘protective shield that will keep expanding’, the PM said. It is on the lines of the ‘Golden Dome’ announced by Trump, it is learnt.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
