The Gauhati High Court has mandated that Nagaland, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, and Mizoram establish a high-level committee to tackle forest encroachments along their inter-state borders.
The court directed the chief secretaries, heads of the forest departments, and other relevant stakeholders from each state to convene a joint meeting and develop a thorough plan to eliminate encroachments in forested regions.
The states are required to present the committee’s resolutions and a report on the actions taken by the next hearing scheduled for November 4.
