Wanwar is presently undergoing treatment at Shillong civil hospital.

So far, police said that they have arrested eight persons in connection with the incident.

“We have already prepared a list of over 90 names of people involved in the incident,” Wanwar told reporters after he interacted with leaders of the four pressure groups , who visited him at the hospital.

The groups include Khasi Students Union (KSU), Federation of Khasi Jaintia and Garo People (FKJGP), Hynniewtrep National Youth Front (HNYF) and Ri Bhoi Youth Federation (RBYF).

The Sordar said that he would soon file an FIR and submitted the names to the concerned authorities for taking necessary action against the perpetrators of the attack.
