The letter submitted by journalists to Sangma on January 7 stated that his unwanted behaviour, which was video recorded, was shocking and unprecedented.
The journalists also recalled that they had many times tried to meet the minister individually and as a group, but he remained elusive for reasons best known to him.
“As it has not been possible to meet him, it was decided to send the list of questions to him. He should answer the same and enlighten the people of Meghalaya,” the journalists stated.
