Northeast Border Dispute

Police sources said incident in Meghalaya capital "believed to have been an aftermath of the firing incident at Mukroh village in West Jaintia Hills"

Mizoram and Assam will hold chief minister-level talks in New Delhi later this month or early September to find an amicable solution to the inter-state border dispute, according to an official statement issued here on Wednesday.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday said that the inter-state boundary dispute between Arunachal Pradesh and Assam is likely to be resolved by next year.

Assam wants a permanent peaceful solution, said the state government's spokesperson Pijush Hazarika amid border dispute with Mizoram, adding that the state will welcome Centre's solution.

Attacking the central government over the border clashes between Assam and Mizoram, Trinamool Congress MP Derek O'Brien on Tuesday said all eyes are on the Union Home Minister Amit Shah who was in the northeast a few days ago.

Fresh violence broke out at the disputed Assam-Mizoram border today -- two days after Union home minister Amit Shah met all Chief Ministers of the northeast at Shillong.

Assam-Mizoram Border Issue: The National Highway 306's blockade entered the fourth day today, starving the latter of essential supplies, even though Central intervention had eased tensions between the two northeastern states last week.

"This is not your bloody area. This is our area. And you are doing recce [reconnaissance], and patrolling this area with so many people? 10 people can do patrolling. Why so many?" Angry words from an Indian Army Officer to a Chinese officer as soldiers of both sides came face to face in Ladakh in Northeast Kashmir.
