BJP questions construction of Tribal research institute over GHADC museum
BJP leader and Tura MDC Bernard N Marak on Monday claimed they have found that the missing museum of the Garo Hills Autonomous District Council (GHADC) in remote village under North Tura constituency, which is presently being represented by Thomas Sangma from the ruling National People’s Party (NPP).
“We found the missing museum of GHADC after the RTI was replied to us. When we reached the museum site, the museum which was supposed to be 80% completed disappeared but only the Tribal Research Institute (TRI) stood there in its place,” Marak said in a statement.
He said that the villagers showed them, the museum was there but now it’s not there anymore as the Tribal Research Institute was built over it adding the government overlapped Tribal Research Institute over GHADC museum.
The BJP leader asked how can one building be shown completed in both centrally funded projects?
Quoting the RTI finding, he said the GHADC museum was shifted from Tura Sunny Hills to Chidekgre in North Tura constituency.
“When we reached the site, we found the museum was overlapped by the Tribal Research Institute (TRI) project. Same building stands there as the GHADC museum as well as the Tribal Research Institute,” Marak said while demanding that such engineering should be applauded with cuffs.
The MDC further said he cannot wonder how low the present system of government will stoop to make money from major projects sanctioned by the Centre Government.
“Should the State leaders still deny a CBI inquiry?” he asked.
He also wanted to know how the GHADC will submit a utilization certificate when the GHADC museum disappeared from the site and another project which is also sanctioned by the centre stands there instead.
“So much manipulation is beyond any justification,” he added.
