Shillong: Meghalaya chief minister Conrad K Sangma on Wednesday refused to share with legislators any details or the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed by the Chief Ministers of Assam and Meghalaya relating to the border dispute “to avoid misleading the House”.

The chief minister’s response came after a question was raised by East Shillong MLA Ampareen Lyngdoh on the status of the phase 1 of the inter-state boundary talks. The CM said a joint MoU was signed by the two CMs on January 29, 2022, which he said was submitted to the Union home minister on January 31 for further examination and consideration.

The government is awaiting further discussions with the MHA and the government of Assam on the matter, the CM said, adding that details of the dialogue would be shared at an appropriate time.
