Cherrapunjee should not be called of Sohra anymore


Cherrapunjee is a name given by a Non-tribal over Tribal place which locally known as SOHRA and among all region and around the Ri Khasi Jaintia and a Meghalaya as a whole recognising the title as SOHRA.

However at large extend or globally in collecting of data and some geograhical study the title is considered as Cherrapunjee which is a very concerned issue in relating the given name because those name are not relating to any mean in Khasi Language.

Some bill board and notice board which has produce the word Cherrapunjee has been demand in removing  by several NGOs in the last few years and convince the authority concern to replace instead by SOHRA.

Also when we discuss globally everyone known as Cherrapunjee instead of Genuine name of SOHRA. But this time through the article toward everyone would like to influence people by sharing as well as far as we can to share that we should impose the real name instead of letting the Non-tribal name over our land.

Thou request to the people kindly please jot down that as far long must dominate the name SOHRA as the official name Instead of Cherrapunjee.

This is from the voice of the Khasis people who concerned much about the matter.
