SHILLONG:

The Cabinet, on June 9, approved the setting up of veterinary, dairy and fisheries Colleges in Meghalaya.

Informing the press, Chief Minister, Conrad Sangma informed that the veterinary and dairy colleges will be set in Kyrdemkulai, Ri-Bhoi district and the Fisheries will come up in Garo Hills though the exact location for it is yet to be ascertained.

β€œThe exact location will be decided once the fisheries department submits the details of the different options that are there,” Sangma said.

In another decision, the cabinet amended the Meghalaya District Courts Magisterial Service Act (Amendment) Rules in compliance with the directions of the High Court.

The amendment will enable district courts to appoint and conduct examinations and interviews at the district level like it is being done by the District Selection Committees instead of being conducted by the High Court.
