Aizawl, August 11:<\/strong> Supply of essential commodities is gradually limping back to normalcy with the lifting of economic blockade on Mizoram lifeline- National Highway-306 in Assam, Mizoram\u00a0supply minister K. Lalrinliana said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

He said that oil tankers and trucks carrying LPG from oil depots and gas bottling plants in Assam are continuously coming in from the neighbouring state since August 7 after lifting the blockade by locals of Lailapur, the nearest Assam\u2019s border village from Mizoram.<\/p>\n

According to the minister, railway tracks, which were damaged at three locations in Assam, have also been reconstructed.\u00a0Transportation of rice bags and other essential commodities by train to Mizoram will resume soon, he said. He said that the stock position of all essential commodities is expected to get normal in the next few days.<\/p>\n

The unannounced economic blockade was imposed by locals along Dholai-Lailapur after the July 26 clash that left at least 7 people, including six policemen from Assam, dead and more than 60 people injured on both sides.<\/p>\n
