Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad Sangma today lashed out at those who alleged that he had violated COVID protocols by taking part in the Republic Day celebrations. He said that it is unfortunate that certain individuals are discussing such petty issues when the entire state is talking about the border talks and Meghalaya attaining 50 years of statehood.

Sangma added that he has huge responsibilities as a Chief Minister and clarified that he has maintained protocols every time. CM Sangma maintained that he had isolated himself on January 21 without taking any chance and refrained from going outside in public. The Meghalaya Chief Minister said it is sad that his integrity has been questioned.

Meanwhile, Meghalaya principal health secretary Sampath Kumar said that the basic idea is 5-days & 7-days isolation. The health official said that 5-days isolation is mandatory for those asymptomatic and 7-days isolation for those with symptoms.
