“He also spoke about the whole northeast like the border row between Assam-Mizoram. As a spokesperson he was drawing the attention of the Government of India why these things were happening in the Northeast,” clarified Dr. Sangma.
He explained that the lawlessness, the anger the frustration weakens the overall environment that is so important to generate momentum of progress.
“Peace and harmony is crucial. It comes when we all feel comfortable and secure leaving no space of insecurity about the future. So what was spoken about was keeping all this in mind and how it all started from CAA protests seen in Northeast and also the border row,” he said.
