SHILLONG : The Khasi Students’ Union (KSU) has expressed dissatisfaction with the preparations for the Facilitation Centre at Umling in Ri-Bhoi district, accusing the state government of failing to fulfil its promises regarding the facility.

The KSU central body, along with the KSU North Khasi Hills District, revisited the Facilitation Centre on Tuesday following an invitation from the office of the Deputy Commissioner of Ri-Bhoi.

However, the union said the condition of the facility fell short of its expectations and the assurances previously given by Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma.

KSU president Raymond Kharjana also questioned the allocation of space for implementing the Meghalaya Residents Safety and Security Act (MRSSA), pointing out that the area earmarked for the purpose was considerably smaller than the space provided for the Food Court.

The union further expressed concern over the lack of clarity regarding which government departments would be stationed and operate from the Facilitation Centre.

Expressing frustration over what it described as repeated promises without satisfactory outcomes, the KSU said it would deliberate further on the matter and decide on its next course of action in the coming days.
