The Story in Brief
A group in Assam has started a blockade against Arunachal Pradesh, escalating a border dispute between the two northeastern states. The Economic Times reports the blockade was launched by an unnamed organisation, disrupting movement along a key route. The action follows longstanding disagreements over territorial boundaries.
