Meghalaya to Table Job Reservation Report
The Meghalaya government has decided to present a special report about jobs in the state during an upcoming meeting in February.
The Chief Minister, Conrad K. Sangma, said the report is very important and needs careful discussion.
The government is also looking into a problem from a few years ago where some teachers were unfairly treated.
