In the last meeting held in Guwahati in November 2022, the two sides decided that Mizoram would furnish the list of villages, their areas, geo-spatial extent, and ethnicity of the people and other relevant information within three months to support its claim.
Mizoram has also written to the Assam government requesting a clarification on it, and is still waiting for a reply, the minister said.
