City school gets playground

Shillong, Oct 4: South Shillong legislator Sanbor Shullai on Thursday inaugurated and officially handed over the newly constructed playfield-cum-seating Gallery of Arya Vidyalaya Secondary School at Jhalupara in Shillong.

The school was established in 1934.

Shullai had earlier shown concern over the lack of space for children and youths to play and conduct various sports activities in Cantonment Civil Area.

This newly-constructed playfield will pave way and cater to the needs of all sports-loving youths and students of the school and various sports clubs of the entire Cantonment Civil Area with due permission from the school authority.

The playfield was sanctioned under SUWP Developmental Scheme 2023-24 for Rs 23,00,000.

The programme was also attended by Ramsevak Prasad Singh, chief patron; Principal S K Singh, vice-principal; A K Jha, secretary; Ravi Tiwari, member of the school managing committee; senior citizen-cum-social leader B B Chettri and others including parents, teachers and students of the school.
