“Let peace return,” said Mizoram chief minister Zoramthanga moments after the Assam government revoked its earlier travel advisory.

Mizoram CM Zoramthanga added: “Thank you Government of Assam.”

The Assam government, on Thursday, revoked its travel advisory dated July 29, which advised people from Assam to visit Mizoram.

The travel advisory has been revoked hours after the Assam and Mizoram governments agreed to find a lasting solution to a century-old inter-state boundary dispute through bilateral discussions, following a ministerial-level talks between the two states.

Representatives of both the State governments held a meeting in Aizawl on Thursday, ten days after the violent clash that took place near Lailapur in Assam’s Cachar district and Vairengte in Mizoram’s Kolasib district.
