Assam and Mizoram on Thursday agreed to let neutral forces deployed by the Centre take control of the disputed stretches of the border for maintaining peace. Trouble between the two States since October 2020 snowballed into a major conflict on July 26 with six Assam policemen and a civilian gunned down allegedly by the Mizoram police and armed civilians. The two States also decided not to send their respective police and forest forces “for patrolling, domination, enforcement or for fresh deployment to any of the areas where confrontation and conflict has taken place between the police forces of the two States during recent times”.
