“Any person, especially the leader of opposition, if is serious about the issue then they should move the court,” Meghalaya deputy CM Prestone Tynsong added.
Tynsong dared the former Meghalaya CM to move the court or file complaints with independent investigating agencies, “if he is really concerned about illegal coal trade”.
“Why does the former CM not take legal action if he has the hard evidence on the illegalities of coal?,” Tynsong questioned.
“We have independent investigating agencies like the CBI that can unearth the truth,” deputy chief minister of Meghalaya Prestone Tynsong said.
