Amid escalating tensions in Meghalaya, a petrol bomb was thrown at the escort vehicle of a senior NEEPCO official, Major General (retired) Rajesh Kumar Jha.
The bodies of two persons identified as Esan Singh and Sujit Dutta had been recovered by police in Ichamati last Wednesday. The area is located in the East Khasi Hills, close to the Bangladesh border and about 80 km from Meghalaya’s capital Shillong.
