Digital Desk: Meghalaya chief minister Conrad K Sangma moved to the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) in response to the deaths caused by Assam officers firing at the inter-state border, calling it an "obvious violation of human rights."
Sangma and Deputy chief minister Prestone Tynsong met with NHRC chairperson Justice Arun Kumar Mishra and its other members in New Delhi, a statement issued by the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) said.
"Informed the Hon'ble Chairperson (NHRC) and the members that the Mukroh incident was a flagrant violation of human rights," he said.
"I sought their backing for appropriate measures from their end," he added.
Sangma highlighted the importance of properly sensitizing soldiers stationed in sensitive places so that such accidents do not occur.
Six individuals, including an Assam forest guard, were killed in firing along the inter-state border on Tuesday after an Assam forest personnel intercepted a truck transporting illegally cut timber.
