Mizoram chief minister Zoramthanga has urged Mizoram residents to avoid any further escalation of the situation. After a telephone conversation with amit shah and Himanta Biswa Sarma, he stated that the border conflict with assam will be addressed peacefully via negotiation. Sources informed NDTV that "fresh negotiations have commenced between the two administrations to de-escalate the situation."


The Centre has informed both states that their officers and soldiers would not be permitted to bring weapons into the war zone. As part of the de-escalation strategy, the central government has also urged the two states to resume emergency and critical supply flow, according to sources.

According to the FIR filed under numerous sections of the indian Penal Code, including "attempt to kill," assam police officers refused to have an "amicable discussion" with Mizoram police on the day of the event, acting on Mr Sarma's orders. Speaker Biswajit Daimary will lead a 19-member all-party assam assembly delegation to Delhi, requesting that the Centre resolve the state's border issue with Mizorom as soon as possible.

Mizoram's purported development in the disputed 198-square-mile stretch of the inter-state boundary has sparked violence. In the areas where there has been violence, at least five companies of the Central Reserve police Force (a total of 500 troops) have been sent. The two states have been at war for decades over the border, but confrontations on monday erupted over a disputed piece of land.
