The border pillar is a legal entity for demarcation between the two states. As per sources, the border pillars had been earlier removed in the area.


The Assam government is mulling to reconstruct another border pillar.


G Plus spoke to Cachar DFO Sunnydeo Choudhury, who confirmed the matter. "Many times in the past it has been removed. This doesn't change the border demarcation as on paper it's all established," Choudhury told G Plus.  


The team has found the situation of the border to be under control. However, in the same area, two schools were blasted in the past. The removal of the border pillar might be indicative of the prevailing situation.
