Mizoram and Assam are likely to hold chief ministerial-level talks in New Delhi later this month or early September to find an amicable solution to the inter-state border dispute, officials said.
The development comes close on the heels of the two northeastern states engaging in a ministerial-level discussion to resolve the decades-old boundary dispute.
Assam ministers Atul Bora and Ashok Singhal on Wednesday met Mizoram Chief Minister Zoramthanga here and discussed the border issue, the officials said.
