The reconstitution affects six districts in Arunachal Pradesh where the border dispute with Assam remains unresolved due to disagreements on the demarcation of villages along the inter-state boundary.

The affected districts are Pakke Kessang, Papum Pare, Kamle, Lower Siang, Lower Dibang Valley, and Longding.

The border dispute has been a source of tension between Assam and Arunachal Pradesh, with residents on both sides of the boundary often contesting the demarcation of their villages.

The reconstituted committees are expected to conduct thorough examinations and engage in discussions to facilitate mutual agreement and peace.
