Kohima:  Nagaland will soon initiate dialogue with Assam to resolve the inter-state border problems especially the tense situation in disputed border villages of Aoyimkum and Dikoi, state Home Minister Yanthungo Patton has said.
“Issues related to the vexed border imbroglio should be solved amicably through dialogues and not through bloodshed,”Patton has said at Dimapur on Tuesday.
Tension has been running high in the two disputed villages in Nagaland after a youth of Aoyimkum village had allegedly assaulted the president of Western Chakhesang Hoho while he was on his way to trouble-hit Dikoi on May 24. A protest rally called by Tenyimi Union Dimapur (TUD) was scheduled for today in Dimapur, but the same was called off after talks with Patton on Tuesday.
Making an appeal for calm and peace along the border with Assam, Patton said that the DAN-III government was committed to protect the public and asked Dimapur administration and police to book the people involved in creating tensions in the border areas. (PTI)
