GUWAHATI: In a definitive step towards resolution of long-standing boundary differences between Assam and Meghalaya, the two states' governments on Monday decided to erect border pillars in five of the disputed areas by Independence Day, chief ministers of the two states said.
These are among the six disputed areas, out of the total 12, for resolving which both the two states had signed an agreement in March 2022, they said.
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and his Meghalaya counterpart Conrad Sangma were addressing a joint press conference here after a meeting on various inter-state issues.
"Out of six areas for which agreement was signed, we will try to erect the border pillars in five of these areas by August 15," Sarma said.
