For the last 10 years, the Congress has been banking on the New Land Use Policy (NLUP) and this time too the party has highlighted the policy during the election campaigns to cross the ensuing Mizoram Assembly elections slated to be held on November 28, 2018.
A series of huge roars erupted at Zaingnen Hall in the major town of Tuichang Assembly constituency when a strong crowd of 1,500 applauded Agriculture Minister KS Thanga’s speech in which the punchline was – “God is with us. He has blessed the New Land Use Policy, because the policy is for the poor farmers and the underprivileged”.
