Shillong Sikhs reject govt panel on land

The Harijan Panchayat Committee, spearheading the resistance to Meghalaya government’s attempt to evict Sikh residents of Shillong’s Punjabi Lane area, today accused the high-level committee under Deputy CM Prestone Tynsong as being “partisan” and said that no way they would accept its decision.
The HLC was constituted by the state after an incident of assault in the Punjabi Lane area in May last year, which resulted in violent group clashes between Sikhs and local Khasis.
