The assam government's plan to limit car and passenger travel from its jurisdiction has been criticised by the Mizoram government. It was "another means of generating opportunities to harass all cars," according to the statement. Non-residents of Mizorom who travel within the state are not subject to such restrictions, according to the state administration.
