AIZAWL, March 11 - Just one year after tension had erupted at Zophai along the Mizoram-Assam border, Mizoram�s apex student body, Mizo Zirlai Pawl (MZP), has decided to reconstruct a resting shed at the same area, which they claimed, was donated to the student body by former Chief Minister late Ch Chhunga�s wife Lalrothangi. The decision to construct the shed was taken at the executive meeting of MZP held here on Monday, MZP president L Ramdinliana said.
According to the MZP leader, an attempt to construct a wooden resting shed at Zophai in March last year remained futile due to a stand-off between Assam police and MZP functionaries. He also said that the student body is firm on constructing a resting shed at Zophai as a result of which the executive meeting on Monday unanimously decided to make another attempt to reconstruct Zofate Chawlhbuk (resting shed for Mizo community) on the border area.
