Mizoram has asked Assam to postpone proposed meeting of a delegation of ministers to form a regional committee on border issue till after assembly election in Oct-Nov.
In Nov 2022 — a year after clashes between police forces of both states claimed 7 lives — it was agreed Mizoram should submit its territorial claims. But there’s been no word from Assam.
Asaam under BJP has stumbled from one divisive row to another — from NRC-CAA to Cattle Preservation Bill, population control policy and now the border clash with Mizoram.
Demarcation of disputed boundary between Assam and Mizoram aside, the current tension has more to do with people, and the perception that Assam is resorting to force.
UCBs accounted for 1.8% of total industry credit in September 2025—down from 2.2% five yrs ago—showing that they are losing ground to faster PSU banks.
This is the game every nation is now learning to play. Some are finding new allies or seeing value among nations where they’d seen marginal interest. The starkest example is India & Europe.
