The situation along the Assam-Nagaland border at the Naginijan area in Mariani got tensed as miscreants from the Nagaland side by building a fence tried occupying a part of the land belonging to Assam.
Sources say that miscreants set up bamboo fencing in broad daylight on a PWD road in Naginijan which led to the tension.
After the police reached the site and initiated talks to resolve the matter, the fencing along the border was withdrawn.
