SHILLONG: The State government is awaiting a response from Assam to hold talks at the level of Chief Secretary and Chief Minister on border issues.
Chief Secretary K.S Kropha said on Thursday it was in August that separate letters were sent by him and the Chief Minister to their Assam counterparts to hold border talks.
The official admitted that after the State government had submitted documents to claim the 12 areas of difference in the border, Assam government had not responded.
He also said the State government is yet to take a call on whether separate negotiation should be held to re-transfer areas under Block 1 and Block II.
