Lalbiakzama told PTI that a meeting held today in Aizawl of Home department officials chaired by state chief secretary Lalmalsawma deliberated the forthcoming Delhi meeting.
"The Union Home Ministry convened the meeting, which would be attended by Mizoram and Tripura officials, to discuss the recent instructions of the Supreme Court," he said.
The apex court apparently instructed the Centre and the state governments of Mizoram and Tripura hold consultations within four months to formulate plans to continue repatriation of Bru families from the Tripura relief camps.
State Home department officials, however, opined that the proposed renewed repatriation would again be a futile exercise as the Brus in the relief camps refused to return to Mizoram despite repeated attempts and road maps for their repatriation during the past half-a-decade.
Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla, speaking in the North Eastern Council (NEC) plenary session recently held in Shillong, proposed that those Brus who refused to return to Mizoram till date despite concerted efforts, should be settled permanently in Tripura.
