The District Magistrate of West Jaintia Hills has withdrawn an order under Section 144 of the CrPC over a land dispute between two villages.
The earlier order was applied to the disputed sites of Lumkhohskhen, Lummynsiang and Umsaitshyieng.
However based on a court order issued, the district magistrate today said the matter of land dispute between Lumlakhiat village and Umshangiar village is sub judice before the Court of the Presiding Officer, Subordinate District Council Court, Jowai.
Hence the order was withdrawn.
