Meghalaya Ready for Border Talks, Awaits Assam’s Regional Committee Chairman

The state of Meghalaya has signalled its preparedness to commence border negotiations with Assam, following recent discussions between state leaders. Meghalaya officials stated that all necessary preparations are in place, and the next step is to secure the appointment of Assam’s regional committee chairman to formalise the talks.

The delay in appointing the chairman has been cited as the primary reason for the pause in formal negotiations. Meghalaya’s government has urged the Assam authorities to expedite the process so that both states can address longstanding border issues.

No further details have been released regarding the agenda of the forthcoming talks, but officials anticipate that the discussions will focus on land demarcation and resource sharing.

The Meghalaya government has reiterated its commitment to a peaceful resolution and has called for a swift appointment of the Assam committee chair to move the process forward.
