During his three-day visit to Assam, Amit Shah also visited Mizoram on March 15 to attend the land transfer ceremony for the Assam rifles' land being transferred to the Mizoram government.

Addressing the gathering, Shah highlighted how the relocation of the Assam Rifles Headquarters from Central Aizawl to Zokhawsang marked a significant milestone in the Indian government's commitment to the development of Mizoram.

“This demand, which has been around for 30-35 years, is now set to be fulfilled due to an important decision by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This is not just an administrative decision but a symbol of the Indian government's responsibility towards the Mizo people,” he said.
