TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Union Home Secretary Ajay Kumar Bhalla would hold a meeting, through video conference, with the Chief Secretaries of Assam and Mizoram on Monday, following the latter’s complaint of Assam’s “transgressions” along the inter-state border, the Mizoram government said on Sunday night.
Meanwhile, an Assam government release said that state Environment and Forest Minister Parimal Suklabaidya on Sunday visited Lailapur, where some houses and stalls were torched by miscreants from Mizoram on Saturday night, and assured its residents that the administration would come to their aid.
A Mizoram government release said that it is also actively engaging with the Assam government to resolve the current issues at the state border, apart from approaching the Union Home Ministry. “In order to instil a sense of security to the distraught residents of the affected border areas and also to prevent any other untoward incident, security has been beefed up in these areas,” said the statement, released after an urgent cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Zoramthanga.
