Shillong, March 15: The state government has been recommended to relocate all teer counters operating within 100 meters of nearest educational institutions and places of worship.

“The Department should ensure to relocate all counters operating within 100 meters of nearest educational institutions and places of worship,” the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) in its report on state revenue for the year ended March 31, 2023 tabled in the just concluded Assembly.

Under Section 6 (1) of the Meghalaya Regulation of the Game of Arrow Shooting and the Sale of Teer Tickets (MRGAS&STT) Act, 2018 (as amended in 2019), counter for sale of teer tickets should be located at the place not less than 100 m from the nearest place of worship or educational institution.

During a joint physical verification (JPV) conducted to ascertain the location of teer counters beyond permissible limits above, Audit checked location of 42 teer counters selling teer tickets across six ST jurisdictions, based on random selection.

Out of the 42 teer counters checked, 31 teer counters were operating in the prohibited jurisdictions, the report stated.
