NLUP to cover repatriated Bru refugees: Mizoram

Mizoram Deputy Speaker John Rotluangliana who during the last three days August 20 visited several villages within his Constituency like Teirei, Damparengpui, Tuipuibari and Rajiv Nagar said that the New Land Use Policy (NLUP) fund will also cover Bru refugees who have returned to the State.

Speaking before the villagers, John said that his most concern is to uplift the economically poor families by providing a source of income to farmers through the NLUP. 

“The success of NLUP is now visible especially in the production of milk and that steps are on to manufacture other products from milk,” he said.

John also said that the 1st Installment of 3rd Phase and 4th Phase (Additional) is to be distributed during September. 

“A separate arrangement is being made to include the repatriated Bru refugees in the NLUP,” he added. The Deputy Speaker was accompanied by Private Secretary R.L Rintluanga and Deputy DPC, SSA Mission Mamit Lalhmunmawia Ralte.
