Shillong, May 28: Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma on Wednesday inaugurated the Block Development Integrated Complex at Songsak C&RD Block in East Garo Hills district.

In a post on his official X handle, the Chief Minister said the infrastructure upgrade was supported under the Special Assistance to States for Capital Investment (SASCI) scheme. He stated that many block offices in the state had remained in poor condition for decades, and the scheme has enabled significant improvements.
