Aizawl, Mar 10: Mizoram Chief Minister Lalduhoma on Monday said that the Free Movement Regime (FMR) at the Indo-Myanmar border has led to several negative consequences.

Lalduhoma expressed concern over unabated smuggling in the state.

While responding to questions during the Assembly budget session, the Chief Minister said, “we must take care of our brothers from Myanmar who have sought refuge in Mizoram following the 2021 military coup and provide humanitarian assistance. However, many of them are unwilling to return, even though their villages are visible just across the border.”

“I believe many people think that unrestricted movement between India and Myanmar is not a good idea,” he said.

Lalduhoma added, “while we value freedom of movement, the central government’s decision on this matter is necessary and might lead to positive outcomes.”
