Most popular DC of Meghalaya:

“I wish this ‘viral’ news of me walking 10 kms to buy local produce would simmer down now,” shares the modest 2008-batch IAS officer, Ram Singh, currently posted as Deputy Commissioner (DC) of West Garo Hills.

He is talking about a picture he shared on Facebook a week ago which has gone viral. The image shows him purchasing produce from a market near Tura.

“21kgs of weekend organic Vegetables shopping, No plastic, no vehicular pollution, no traffic jam, Fit India, Fit Meghalaya, Eat Organic, Clean & Green Tura , POSHAN, 10km morning walk.” wrote Mr Singh in his post smashing the stereotypical notions of our sarkari babu’s, one step at a time!
