‘A high-level official team will be sent to hold talks with Myanmar’, says the Chief Minister.

He said, “I sat down for a moment to chat with the Home Secretary on the contention of the boundary fencing at questioned regions with Myanmar. It was concurred that the erection of the closing in these contested regions will be suspended. The Home Ministry is sending a guidance to the Manipur Chief Secretary. A significant level authority group will be shipped off hold chats with the Myanmarese partner”.

He said, “I stopped to chat with the Home Secretary on the discussion of the line fencing at questioned regions with Myanmar. It was concurred that the erection of the closing in these contested regions will be suspended. The Home Ministry is sending a guidance to the Manipur Chief Secretary. An undeniable level authority group will be shipped off hold converses with the Myanmarese partner”.

Mr. Biren further said that his administration took an intense perspective on the profoundly touchy issue.

As of late, a reality tracking down group of the United Committee Manipur (UCM) had visited the boundary regions between BP 80 and 81. It found that the fencing erection work was going full speed ahead with practically no complaints from India, despite the way that the under-development wall would remove between one to three km of Manipur’s territory. To draw the consideration of the State and the Union Government, the UCM had begun fights.

The Chief Minister has kept up with that a line wall is important to really take a look at the far and wide carrying of manures, drugs and other stash things. Since Myanmar, which is important for the Golden Triangle, is Manipur’s neighbor individuals had become obvious objective. The fencing would be raised once the question was figured out, he said.

The work on the 10-km line wall had begun close to Moreh-Namphalong towns of India and Myanmar. In any case, it must be suspended following complaints by Myanmar saying that its domain had been infringed. Official sources said that worldwide pirating had been flourishing along this boundary.
