Assam cab operators maintain highway blockade over Shillong violence despite CM talks

Assam cab operators have extended their highway blockade following violent attacks on Assam residents in Shillong, the capital of neighbouring Meghalaya. The blockade persists despite recent talks between the chief ministers of both states aimed at resolving the dispute.

The operators are protesting against the incidents of violence targeting Assam residents in Shillong. Despite high-level discussions between the two chief ministers seeking to defuse tensions, the cab operators have maintained their protest action on key highways connecting the two states.
