AIZAWL, June 3 – Cross- sections of the Mizo people have expressed dismay at the absence of a representative from the State in the Union Ministry while both MPs from neighbouring Meghalaya were inducted as Union Ministers.
Opposition Mizo National Front (MNF) leader M C Lalrinthanga has accused State Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla of being powerless to influence the UPA and the AICC leadership to include C L Ruala, the lone Lok Sabha member from the State, in the Union Ministry.
Lallianchhunga, a lecturer of political science in Mizoram University, lamented that the Congress leadership in Delhi failed to appreciate the huge mandate received by the party from the people of Mizoram in the December State Assembly polls and the recent Parliamentary polls. Dr C Silvera, who was a Minister of State during the Narasimha Rao regime, was the first and only representation Mizoram ever has till date, Lallianchhunga said. – PTI
