Replying to a question raised by Champhai North MLA Pu H. Ginzalala under the General Administrative Department (GAD), the Chief Minister said that steps are being taken to strengthen infrastructure and administrative facilities within and outside the state.
He noted that Mizoram Houses located in selected cities across India have been allowed to accommodate people from Manipur. Regarding proposed expansion and new construction of Mizoram Houses at Guwahati (6 Mile) and Bengaluru, Lalduhoma said financial constraints have prompted discussions with BSNL to utilise its existing land for constructing new buildings in various cities.
