Dr RK Ranjan raised the issue of boundary disputes between Manipur and Nagaland in the Lok Sabha today.
Raising the issue during zero hour today, Dr Ranjan sought attention of the Union Home Minister to the boundary disputes between Nagaland and Manipur at Dzuko Valley, Tungjoy and Wahong.
Dr Ranjan said that these disputes have been there since five decades back and they have become a source of conflict between villagers on either side of the inter-State boundary.
He also sought attention of the Ministry of Home Affairs to resolve the issue of lack of clarity regarding the boundary between Assam and Manipur at certain areas.
