To Become Adventure Sports Hub for Indian Army.
The year gone by might be termed as a ‘bleak phase’ for the state of Arunachal Pradesh. The year 2016 saw a lot of political turmoil and unrest in the state during which chief ministers were changed several times and displaying total disregard towards parliamentary democracy. MLAs changed their political affiliation from one party to another. In other words, a section of the greedy and power hungry politicians ‘murdered’ all the hopes and aspirations bestowed upon them by the voters during the elections. On the development front too, apart from the routine works, the state achieved hardly anything. In fact, there are reports of massive fiscal irregularities and mismanagement by the successive governments and its agencies who ruled the state during the year. However, amidst all the negative news, there were some occasional positive news too, which held promise of taking the developmental activities of the state, a few steps forward.

RECALLING - THE MAN OF GREAT VIRTUES P.A.SANGMA
As September approaches there begins a change in Delhi, morning becomes cooler, midday sun a bit friendly, humidity too pretends to be packing off and a sense of an all-pervasive thermal comfortability becomes visible outdoors. I still remember P A Sangma was born on 1st September 1947and the remembrance takes me to look back and a montages of memories come crowding in: some events are still clear while some got blurred, perhaps the inner flash is partly diffused.

Role Of Traditional Heads In: Containing The Outbreak Of Covid-19
Meghalaya has the lowest number of Covid-19 positive cases among the other states in India with 59 cases. The government took a wise decision at every crucial moment and handled the situation very well. Even before the countrywide lockdown, the state government got the message across and the result was that the people got used to lockdown conditions well in advance. The success in controlling the outbreak of COVID-19 in Meghalaya is a collective effort from the Government initiatives along with public support. The state recorded its first positive case for COVID-19 on 13 April 2020 after a senior doctor from Bethany Hospital was tested positive. In the aftermath, the state Government has taken an initial step by sealing off all borders including inter-state, inter-district and international border.
