HM Shah would inaugurate Assam Rifles complex at Zokhawsang and Laldenga Centre in Aizawl
Union Home Minister Amit Shah would visit Mizoram on March 17 to inaugurate two important infrastructure projects, Chief Minister Zoramthanga said on Tuesday.
Zoramthanga told reporters that the Union Minister would inaugurate the Assam Rifles complex at Zokhawsang near Aizawl. He would also inaugurate the Laldenga Centre set up in Aizawl in memory of former state chief minister and Mizo National Front (MNF) founder Laldenga.
Relocation of Assam Rifles base from the heart of Aizawl to the designated camp at Zokhawsang, about 15 km on the eastern outskirts of the state capital, was one of the top agendas of Zoramthanga led MNF government in the last assembly polls held in November 2018.
In February 2019, the Union Home Ministry had directed the Assam Rifles to shift its battalion headquarters to Zokhawsang by May 31 that year.
