The Bharatiya Janata Party in Mizoram has publicly criticised Chief Minister Lalduhoma for his recent comments on the state's Autonomous District Councils.
The Bharatiya Janata Party unit in Mizoram issued a statement condemning Chief Minister Lalduhoma's recent remarks concerning the Autonomous District Councils (ADCs). The party said the comments undermined the constitutional role of the ADCs and could create confusion among the public.
Party officials emphasized that the ADCs are integral to Mizoram's governance structure and urged the CM to refrain from making statements that could be perceived as dismissive. They called for a constructive dialogue on any issues related to the councils rather than public criticism.
The BJP's response comes amid ongoing discussions in the state about the functioning and powers of the ADCs, which have a distinct administrative status under the Sixth Schedule of the Indian Constitution. No further clarification from the Chief Minister's office has been reported as of now.
