MLA resigns: Former Mizoram Home Minister R Lalzirliana today tendered his resignation as MLA, almost a month after he resigned from the Lal Thanhawla Cabinet.

Lalzirliana, accompanied by two MNF MLAs, tendered his resignation letter to the Assembly Secretary as the Speaker was absent.

On September 14, Lalzirliana resigned from the Cabinet, a few days after he was served a show cause notice by the Congress disciplinary committee over media reports about his joining the MNF. On September 17, he was expelled from the party.
