Meghalaya: Muslims seek 4% job quota

May 31, 2023

The Anti-Corruption League (ACL), representing the ‘Desi’ Muslims inhabiting the plains belt of Meghalaya’s Garo Hills region, has demanded 4% quota in jobs for Muslims in the state. The ACL has submitted its request in a letter to CM Conrad K. Sangma on May 30. “In the historic tripartite meeting among Central government representatives, non-tribal leadership led by the then MDC (member of district council) Akramuz Zaman and the tribal leadership led by Captain Williamson A. Sangma (Meghalaya’s first Chief Minister), the non-tribals were assured of equal opportunities and fair play by the tribal leaders,” the ACL said.
