Meanwhile,
Mizoram has agreed
to resume the stalled
repatriation of
Bru refugees from
Tripura as the Centre
has nodded to rehabilitation
of displaced Mizo
families in Tripura,
State Home Minister
R Lalzirliana said
on March 19,
reports The
Shillong Times.
“As the Union Home
Minister agreed
to give rehabilitation
to the 80 Mizo families,
who had been driven
out of their homes
in Sakhan Hills
in Tripura by Bru
militants, Mizoram
will resume the
repatriation of
Brus from refugee
camps in Tripura,”
Lalzirliana added.
Official
sources said the
Bru repatriation
will resume from
April. The repatriation
process, which began
in November 2010,
was called off on
June 6, 2011, by
the Mizoram Government
after the NGOs and
political parties
demanded rehabilitation
to the displaced
Mizo families, who
had been driven
out of their homes
in 1998 by Bru militants.
The Union Home Ministry
in September 2011
agreed to give rehabilitation
to the displaced
Mizo families. According
to official records,
Mizoram had so far
repatriated 4119
Bru refugees belonging
to 799 families
from the six refugee
camps in North Tripura. |
