Shillong, Jan 16: Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma has informed that the government is trying to find ways and means to resolve the issue of land acquisition to pave way for completion of the construction of fencing along Indo-Bangla border.

According to him, approximately 50-60 kms of the 443kms international border is remaining unfenced due to opposition from local residents.

Speaking to reporters, Sangma said, “Again in these areas, there are concerns expressed by the local people. It is very difficult in our state, where our land tenure systems are the way they are and hence, we cannot simply just bulldoze and we need to take the people into confidence.”

“To be very frank, our government’s approach has always been to take people into confidence while we try to move forward. yes, there are times when some communication gap may take place but in the majority of the cases, we have always taken the people into confidence,” he said while adding “In this case also, we would like to take them into confidence, convince them that it is necessary. Work with them, work with MHA, which we are doing on a continuous basis but we are not finding a breakthrough as of now. It is a matter of concern. We are pushing as much as possible and I hope we will find a way forward.”
