Actions related to Chakma votes Mizoram CM accuses ZPM
Aizawl: Mizoram Chief Minister, Zoramthanga, has expressed concern over the Zoram People’s Movement (ZPM), highlighting what he perceives as inconsistent actions and statements made by the political outfit. The chief minister’s remarks came in response to ZPM’s first claim that they “don’t need Chakma votes”, and the subsequent formation of a party unit in the Chakma Autonomous District Council (CADC).
The Chief Minister expressed these views during the block conference of the Mizo National Front Party in Aizawl South I Constituency on Saturday.
The Chief Minister emphasized that these contradictory actions call into question the authenticity of ZPM and transparency in its political endeavours. He noted that although the ZPM had initially won particularly in the Langley Municipal Council and by-elections, it now seems to be losing ground due to various issues.
He also pointed out that the ZPM started as a movement against traditional party politics, but has since changed its agenda and sought recognition as a political party from the Election Commission of India. What is demanded? This change has made people question the structure and coordination of the organization. The Chief Minister expressed doubt that ZPM would get enough MLA seats to form the party in the next election.
In the 2018 assembly elections, the Zoram People’s Movement (ZPM), then a relatively new political entrant in Mizoram, made a significant statement. Their chief ministerial candidate, Lalduhoma, announced that the party would refrain from fielding any candidate in the two constituencies with a Chakma majority in the upcoming Mizoram elections, citing the larger interest of the people of Mizoram.
However, despite this stance, the ZPM has formed a unit and actively participated in the elections to the Autonomous District Councils (ADCs), including the CADC elections held in April this year.
In a recent political development, Chakma Autonomous District Council (CADC) Chief Executive Member Rasik Mohan Chakma has announced his intention to join the Zoram People’s Movement (ZPM) party, along with 16 members of the district council.
