  • Press Release Baghmara, Oct 26: Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K
    Press Release Baghmara, Oct 26: Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma on Sunday laid foundation stone for the construction of the new building of Captain W. A. Sangma Memorial College, Baghmara on the occasion of Captain Sangma’s 30th Death Anniversary in presence of Education Minister Lahkmen Rymbui, MLA of Baghmara Samuel Sangma, MLA of Siju Rongara Rakkam A. Sangma, and others. Speaking on the occasion, the Chief Minister said, “I was taken aback when I visited the college last time. It was the same as it was 12 years ago. In 2008, the college was accorded provincialisation, however, there has been no improvement as far as infrastructure was concerned”. “Why did it take so long for mere Rs. 12 cr for the College?” the CM questioned. Without blaming the past government for the lapses, the CM said, “12 years is too long. However, today the work has begun and we hope that the college will shape in the next two years and will be able to benefit the students of the district.” He lauded the Education Minister Lahkmen Rymbui for his clarity in taking decisions, which has ensured intervention in the education department for overall good of the State. “He (Rymbui) is not a normal politician, he will tell black is black and white is white, unlike others who may confuse you. His clarity of thoughts reflects in the decision he makes for the interest and future of the State and the children,” the Chief Minister stated. Informing that when Rymbui presented the proposal for sanctioning of 12 cr each to Capt Sangma College and two other colleges, he said, “The proposal was so clear that I did not take even 2 minutes to finalise and issue necessary directions.” Meghalaya Govt has taken decision to upscale three colleges, the other two are – Williamnagar Govt College and Sohra Govt College with sanction of Rs.
