Zoramthanga Says He Will Soon Retire From Active Politics
Zoramthanga said that he discussed retiring from party president and active politics with party senior vice-president Tawnluia and both agreed that the MNF party should continue without them.
“We have discussed the matter and we agreed that the party should continue without our presence as both of us have attained 80 years. We have also informed our party leaders about our retirement,” he told MNF workers after the party’s office in Aizawl was inaugurated.
The MNF chief said that party leaders will soon bring out a new arrangement. He added that the current term of the MNF leaders has already expired and he and Tawnluia have requested party leaders not to include them among office-bearers.
