Assam Tribune | R Dutta Choudhury | Guwahati, Aug 20
The villagers living along the India-Myanmar border areas are at the mercy of the militants and undesirable elements because of lack of presence of administration in the area. This was the observation of the Task Force constituted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to study the problems in managing the international border with Myanmar and to suggest measures to improve it.
The Task Force, headed by the Chairman of the Joint Intelligence Committee (JIC) RN Ravi, pointed out in its report that there is gross deficiency of infrastructure in the villages along the Myanmar border and there is immediate need for improving the situation. Basic amenities, like roads, power, etc., in the 10-kilometre belt along the Myanmar border, covering four States were found lacking.
