NEW DELHI: Home minister Amit Shah said on Tuesday the Assam-Meghalaya accord has ended the dispute in about 70% of the inter-state border areas and differences in the remaining six places will be resolved soon. “Today is a historic day for the conflict-less northeast India. Since 2014, PM Modi has wanted peace, development, prosperity and cultural protection and several initiatives have been taken in this regard,” he said.
“In July 24, 2021, I visited Meghalaya and said Assam must show large heartedness and resolve the border disputes with its neighbours. Assam and Meghalaya have resolved their border dispute in six places and with this, 70% of the dispute has been resolved,” he said.
