A Meghalaya couple has decided to sit in protest against the horrific atrocities being committed for the last 40 years in Meghalaya against non-locals in the state.

A permanent resident of Meghalaya, Sushit Kanti Choudhury and Kalpana Choudhury, residing at Matri Bhumi, Rilbong Shillong have decided to sit for a protest on 23rd January on the auspicious occasion of 125^th birth anniversary of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose

Writing a letter to the Deputy Commissioner of East Khasi Hills seeking permission for the protest, Choudhury wrote that he along with his wife has decided to sit on a hunger strike (except taking our regular medicines) on protest from 10.00 am at Police Bazar point below the old assembly gate till their death for the cause of severe atrocities on the Bengali communities in particular and all other Non-tribal populace of Meghalaya starting from 1979 till 20th January 2022 were some stabbing incidence have taken place.

They highlighted that till date not a single murderer, looters, gang of money extortionist, and many other criminals have not been convicted or given punishment as per the law of the Indian constitution. Choudhury couple wrote, ‘we being the citizens of India are ill treated here as third grade populace. I have my democratic rights to protest in noble silence against more than 40 years of atrocities”.

Till the time Government of Meghalaya commit our fundamental rights and punish those culprits we shall not break our fasting, they informed.

My support to the couple for their protest against the atrocities towards non tribals in #Meghalaya, India is for Indians, where every Indian has the right to reside & flourish in any state of his/her choice. Such attacks are blatant attack on #Democracy & #humanity.

City Couple begins Protest against Atrocities Against Non-Tribals

For @ShillongTimesIn & its illiterate editorial staff, the atrocities against non-tribals in Meghalaya are "alleged". This means atrocities may or may not be happening. Grow a fucking pair.https://t.co/uxHdvPc6Vc

40 years state government & central government never take any action against killing of non tribel in Meghalaya. Atleast one couple have the courage to take this up. Proud of Mr & Mrs Choudhary from Shillong. @narendramodi @PMOIndia @HMOIndia @RSSorg @MeghBulletin https://t.co/VhzrOr1nPh
