Young Mizo Association (YMA) would put more pressure on Mizoram chief minister Lal Thanhawla to sack Minister of State for Fisheries Dr B. D. Chakma due to his 'divisive' actions.
General Secretary of the central committee of the YMA Vanlalruata told PTI that they would seek appointment with Lal Thanhawla after the latter returns from Delhi.
"Chakma was involved in the boycott of election to the Chakma autonomous district council (CADC) and also attended the meeting of Chakma NGOs in Silchar on July 26 and 27 when the delegates resolved to carve out CADC areas from Mizoram," Vanlalruata said.
He also said that Rs five each would be collected from every YMA member for expenses of head count of Chakma community in Mizoram.
