Government Press was established about 100 years ago during
the British Rule. After independence the then State of Assam
was created with its capital and HQ of the Secretariat Press
at Shillong under the supervision of Superintendent and
Assistant Superintendent. The Office of the Government Press,
Shillong and Stationery and Forms Office were amalgamated into
one establishment and upgraded to the status of the
Directorate of Printing and Stationery, Meghalaya, Shillong on
the 23rd June, 1982 after Meghalaya attained Statehood. Branch
Press Tura, was commissioned during he year 1983 and much of
the workload have been reduced considerably.
The Directorate of Printing and Stationery is essentially a
serving department catering to the needs of all the Government
offices in the State for Printing and Stationery. Though it
has become very difficult for the Directorate to accommodate
printing works with the old machineries which were installed
40-50 years back and have outlived their life, a multi storied
building was constructed and new techniques are introduced to
facilitate
- Economy
- Quality
- Meet the growing demand
- Works presently done outside the State such as colour
Printing etc. are undertaken in the Govt. Press

on payment basis
- Man power planning by ensuring reduction in work force
in the old Printing process
- To generate additional revenue for the State Govt.
