“Such workers have been immediately pushed back,” it said.
The statement said that the checking has been conducted as a mark of pressurizing the state government to immediately implement the Meghalaya Residents Safety and Security Act (MRSSA), 2016 and inner line permit (ILP) to address the issue of unabated influx into the state and to safeguard the rights and interest of the indigenous people.
