Meghalaya: Man arrested for posting derogatory remarks against East Khasi Hills DC on Facebook

SHILLONG:

Meghalaya Police on Saturday arrested one person, identified as Donlad Shylla, for posting derogatory remarks against the Deputy Commissioner of East Khasi Hills district, Isawanda Laloo, recently.

According to police sources, Shylla (38) is a resident of Ksehrynchang under Nartiang Police Station (PS) in the West Jaintia Hills district. He was arrested from his residence by Shillong police, assisted by Nartiang PS.

Shylla had recently posted a derogatory remark, targeting the DC, on Facebook over the instruction issued by her regarding vaccination.

Recently, Laloo had issued a notification asking all shopkeepers to get themselves vaccinated, failing of which they wouldn’t be allowed to open their shops. 

This direction did not end well with a section of the people who felt that this amounts to “forced vaccination”.
