Interstate border violence perpetrated by Mizoram Police: Assam Assembly team in report

The Assam Assembly team in a report said that the recent violence along the Assam-Mizoram border was “perpetrated” by the police force in the neighbouring state.

The recent violence in Cachar district, along the Assam-Mizoram border, was “perpetrated” by the police force in the neighbouring state, an all-party delegation of the Assembly here that had visited the site of the incident said on Friday. In its report tabled in the Assam Assembly, the team also said that the incident “was nothing but a cold-blooded massacre”, with no effort on the part of the Mizoram Police to control the mob on its side. The delegation noted that the "Mizoram Police along with some miscreants indulged in encroachment activities" in Assam, and claimed that the border dispute has been festering for long due to this reason.
