Mizoram health minister R. Lalthangliana has blamed Assam for continuing the economic blockade of his state, despite the two chief ministers agreeing to resolve the border dispute peacefully.

"All transporters in Guwahati operating in Mizoram have been instructed to stop transporting any goods into Mizoram... this has resulted in a complete halt of goods including essential medical supplies coming into Mizoram," Dr R. Thangliana wrote to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, requesting urgent action to end the blockade.
