Meghalaya: Is Khyndailad a pick up point for sex workers in Shillong?

Shillong: While prostitution is a crime in Meghalaya, Khyndailad has become topic of discussion as a pickup point for sex workers in Shillong city.

Responding to a question by North Shillong MLA Adelbert Nongrum in the Meghalaya Assembly on Wednesday, Minister in-charge of Home (Police) Lahkmen Rymbui denied claims that Khyndailad was a pick up point for sex workers, but said it was instead a pickup point for passengers.

Nongrum asked Rymbui to spare time after 10 pm to check concerns brought before the House. Rymbui, in turn, told the MLA to call the police immediately if he notices such an act again.
