It has been two decades since the boundary talks between the two countries began.

Lyonpo Damcho Dorji said the two countries started a joint technical field survey for a proper demarcation.

The survey first began in 2013.

“The talks are, most of the time, based on traditional customs of usage of land and the administrative authority.”
