Team to check repatriated bona fide Brus

Aizawl, Sep 20 (PTI) A team of representatives of Young Mizo Association (YMA), Mizo Zirlai Pawl (MZP) or Mizo Students Federation and major political parties would conduct joint verification of the Brus repatriated from relief camps in North Tripura district.A leader of the YMA central committee today said the team left Aizawl yesterday for Mizoram-Tripura border Mamit district for the verification.The joint team would submit a report to the state government if any of the repatriated Brus were found to be not bona fide residents of Mizoram.The team consists of three representatives each from YMA and MZP, two each from the ruling Congress, opposition Mizo National Front (MNF), Zoram Nationalist Party (ZNP) and the BJP were sent to conduct the verification.While the civil societies and political parties unanimously agreed that 1995 voters' list should be used as yardstick for identification of bona fide residents for the repatriated Brus, the state government used 2009 electoral rolls to determine the same.
