This led to a cessation of all intercourse between the two countries for eight years. The Jaintia Raja then made overtures to the Bar Phukan at Gauhāti, and friendly relations were re-established. - [Previous: c12.75](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c12.75) - [Next: c12.77](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c12.77) - [Up: c12](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c12) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c12.76](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gait-1906.c12.76) · Pramāṇa
