The Zoram People's Movement in Mizoram is preparing for a change at the top, with veteran politician Lalduhoma expected to assume the role of party chief.
Mizoram's Zoram People's Movement (ZPM) is on the cusp of a leadership transition, according to reports from local sources. The party, which has been a key player in the state's coalition politics, is expected to appoint veteran politician Lalduhoma as its new chief.
Lalduhoma, a former member of the state assembly and a long‑time advocate of regional autonomy, has been floated as the frontrunner for the top post. Party insiders say his experience and grassroots connect could steer ZPM through upcoming electoral challenges.
The impending change comes ahead of the next state assembly elections, where ZPM aims to consolidate its voter base. While the final decision is yet to be formally announced, the consensus within the party appears to favor Lalduhoma's elevation to chief.
The leadership shift is being closely watched by political analysts, who note that a Lalduhoma‑led ZPM could reshape alliance dynamics in Mizoram's multiparty landscape.
