Here’s a list of some of the largest villages in Meghalaya by population (based mainly on 2011 Census data, as updated statewide village population data beyond 2011 is limited):

These picks are among the more populous ones identifiable from available census and block data. (des.megplanning.gov.in)

Broken Promises on Lumpongdeng: Conrad Sangma Under Fire

by Publisher Meghinn -
Image
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. At the center of the controversy is Conrad Sangma, who had earlier assured citizens that only temporary structures would be allowed on the island. This assurance was seen as a balanced approach—promoting tourism while preserving the natural beauty of Umiam Lake. However, documents obtained through the Right to Information (RTI) Act by Green Tech Foundation suggest otherwise. The RTI findings indicate that the island may have already been handed over to a private company from outside the state, raising serious questions about the credibility of earlier statements. This apparent contradiction has led many...

Legend UN Sun shine once again with his song over trading license

by Publisher Meghinn -
Image
Great singer UN The sun shone brightly once more during the District Council's inspection of non-tribal vendor for trading licences in Shillong.   Few Khasi ladies have captured the business as soon as checking took place over non-tribal vendors shops and claimed the business as the owner, even though it is clearly known that the business is run and owned by non-tribals.   The Shine of Un Sun song that he wrote almost more than 20 years ago is about the influx of non-tribals to our state for business, but nothing can be done by the authorities because the moment checking starts, all the Khasi Girs pretend to be their business.   The artist already knew what was wrong with the Khasi girls, who already defended non-tribal people. In fact, the youth and some Jews are trying to do something in order to protect the business and the employment here in our state, but when it comes to the lady, it's a part of the licence or the gateway to the business without obtaining the ...
