Amidst the parleys between the two northeastern States to find an amicable solution to the vexed border issue, the Mizoram Police alleged that Assam policemen have constructed two temporary huts in the disputed Zophai area.
Kolasib superintendent of police Vanlalfaka Ralte told PTI over the phone that the Assam Police erected two temporary huts in the Zophai area on October 2 at a place opposite Mizoram's first chief Minister Ch Chhunga's paddy field where a border clash had occurred in 2018. The huts were, however, dismantled on Monday by the Assam police itself, he said.
The authorities in Assam could not be contacted for comments.
