Two-day blockade over border dispute in Meghalaya

Shillong : The Hynniewtrep National People Federation has called for a two-day night blockade protesting the 'casual attitude' of Meghalaya government in resolving the vexed international border and inter-state boundary disputes.

The night blockades will be enforced from tomorrow, from 7pm to 6am in the four districts of Khasi-Jaintia hills.

Slamming the delay in resolving the disputes, HNPF president R Ranee said the organisation is concerned about the plight of the people living along the border areas.

"The government has been casual in uplifting the condition of these people who have bore the brunt of the inter-state boundary and international border disputes," he said.
