Broken Promises on Lumpongdeng: Conrad Sangma Under Fire

by Publisher Meghinn -

Development or Deception? Questions Surround the Umiam Taj Resort Project The recent developments surrounding the proposed T aj Resort and Spa at Lumpongdeng Island in Umiam Lake have sparked serious public concern across Meghalaya. What was initially presented as a tourism-boosting initiative is now being questioned for its transparency, intent, and fairness toward local communities.

This apparent contradiction has led many...
