MNF Demands Mizoram CM Apologize Over ILP and Peace Accord Remarks
The opposition Mizo National Front (MNF) has demanded Mizoram Chief Minister Lalduhoma publicly apologize and retract his recent remarks on the Inner Line Permit (ILP) system and the 1986 Mizo Peace Accord. The MNF alleges his statements were factually incorrect and harmful to Mizoram's interests, ethnic unity, and security. The party warned of potential political agitation, including a statewide bandh, if the apology is not issued by August 15. Lalduhoma had questioned the ILP's permanence and the terminology of the peace accord during a speech at Mizoram Law College.
