Chief Executive Member (CEM), Karbi Anglong Autonomous Council (KAAC), Tuliram Ronghang on Saturday said that the road from Kheroni to Jirikindeng will be built under Asom Mala.

He led a joint all party visit to the inter-state border of Assam-Meghalaya in West Karbi Anglong from where on June 13 an Assam police BoP was dismantled at Khaskhasla inside Assam and later a Meghalaya police BoP was removed from Pisiyar village under Jirikindeng police station.

The place Khaskhasla is from where a BoP was remove recently is not the actual border, it is three kms away from there. As per when the KAAC was established in 1951 the border stands on the bank of Umtang River which is a natural boundary.”

“With discussion with the chief minister a police station will be set up at the bank of Umtang River along with Assam police battalion and CRPF camp. I assure you not an inch of land belonging to Karbi Anglong will be given away,” he added.
