Patricia Mukhim, C-NES Trustee, appointed to NSAB

Ms. Patricia Mukhim, Trustee of C-NES and editor of The Shillong Times, has been appointed a member of the National Security Advisory Board (NSAB).  Ms. Mukhim is an award winning journalist and was earlier honoured with the Padma Shri and has been one of the region’s most vocal advocates for dialogue, peace processes and women’s rights.  We congratulate her on this latest appointment and wish her well,  so that she brings the concerns of the region to the NSAB, where C-NES Manging Trustee, Sanjoy Hazarika had served as member in 1999-2000, during the first NSAB.
