Shillong: Security in Meghalaya's Garo Hills region has been beefed up ahead the visit of Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh and Minister of state for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju tomorrow, an official said today. “Security in and around Tura has been beefed up,” Inspector General of Police (Western Range) H Nongpluh told PTI.
