Met the local Gaon Burahs today at Pasighat. The institution of Gaon Burahs has helped local administration in ensuring peace and order in the society. The institution received further legal recognition under Arunachal Pradesh Civil Courts Bill passed in the Assembly recently. pic.twitter.com/PwlPwSv851
