Guwahati: A Division Bench of Gauhati High Court comprising Chief Justice A K Goel and Justice N K Singh has held that the protocol signed between India and Bangladesh on exchange of land can’t be implemented without amending the Constitution and enactment of law.

The land protocol aims at exchange of adversely possessed land by both the countries in Assam and West Bengal border areas. The High Court order came in response to a PIL filed by Sujata Changkakoti and three other advocates.
