First border pillar between Assam, Arunachal erected

The first border pillar between Assam and Arunachal Pradesh has been installed, marking a significant step in the ongoing efforts to resolve the long-standing border disputes between the two northeastern states. This initiative, coordinated by the Assam government and supported by Arunachal Pradesh, aims to demarcate the boundaries more clearly and foster better inter-state relations. The boundary issues have historically led to tensions and conflicts, making this development crucial for regional stability. Local officials expressed optimism that the erection of this pillar will pave the way for further progress in border delineation and enhance cooperation between the neighboring states. The installation is part of a broader strategy to address various territorial disputes in the region, which has seen several efforts over the years to establish clear and recognized boundaries. As both states continue to work together, this first border pillar is expected to be a foundational element in promoting peace and collaboration in the northeastern part of India.
