Lalduhoma To Take Oath As Mizoram CM On December 8
“I have telephonic conversations with the Home Minister and External Affairs Minister on Tuesday. I will soon meet them in Delhi to discuss how the Centre and the state government can work together to look after the refugees and displaced people,” Lalduhoma told media persons after meeting Mizoram Governor Dr Hari Babu Kambhampati at Raj Bhavan.
Lalduhoma said his government will continue to provide shelter to the refugees from Myanmar and Bangladesh and displaced people from Manipur on humanitarian grounds.
He added that his government will also see if it can provide better relief to them compared to that by the outgoing Mizo National Front (MNF) government. The Zoram People’s Movement (ZPM) dethroned Zoramthanga-led MNF on December 4, bagging 27 of the total 40 assembly seats.
