Police barricades remained erected at Jorabat in Guwahati and Cachar district, the two main entry points from Assam into Meghalaya.
Heavy security was deployed, and prohibitory orders remained in force at the disputed area along the Assam-Meghalaya border, where six people were killed following violent clashes, even as travel restrictions between the two states continued for the sixth consecutive day on Sunday, officials said.
An advisory was issued by the Assam Police, asking people to avoid travelling to the neighbouring state following the incident on Tuesday.
"The situation is still not completely peaceful in Meghalaya. There could be attacks on people or vehicles from Assam. Hence, we are asking people not to travel to that state," a police officer said.
"If at all someone has to travel, we have asked them to go by Meghalaya-registered vehicles," he said.
