The services had been suspended from June 1 following a violent clash between police and a mob in the city's Motphran area on May 31 night forcing the district administration to impose curfew and other restrictions in 13-tension hit areas of the city.
The clash erupted following violence involving members of the Punjabi and indigenous Khasi communities at Sweepers Lane, known to locals as Them Metor, in Shillong's commercial area near Iewduh, one of the busiest markets in the northeastern states.
On the other hand, authorities have temporarily suspended internet services on mobile telephones in Garo Hills region after a report from Director General of Police S.B. Singh warning that a serious law and order situation has again arisen there causing a potential threat to public safety.
