Meghalaya to Verify Village Names with Assam Amid Border Row

Meghalaya is undertaking a significant step to address long-standing border disputes with its neighbouring state, Assam. New regional committees have been constituted with the specific mandate to verify village names against Assam's official land records.

This initiative is part of a broader effort to bring clarity and resolution to areas of contention along the shared border. The cross-verification process is expected to provide a factual basis for demarcating boundaries and resolving any discrepancies in place names.

The formation of these committees signifies a proactive approach by the Meghalaya government in its ongoing dialogue with Assam to achieve a peaceful and mutually agreeable border settlement.
