Hmar body opposes Sinlung Hills as part of new Mizoram districts

Aizawl: Hmar Students’ Association (HSA), the lone students’ body as well as the oldest organisation among the Hmar people in Northeast, on Friday expressed its strong opposition to a bid to include the Hmar-dominated villages in the northeastern part of Mizoram under the proposed Saitual and Darlawn districts.

A statement issued by HSA’s Sinlung Hills Joint headquarters said it vehemently opposed the move to merge several villages within the jurisdiction of Sinlung Hills Council (SHC) under the proposed Saitual and Darlawn districts, though it endorsed their creation.
