It has a 98 feet high chimney. Kneading of soil and casting of bricks is being done by a machine bought at a cost of about Rs.10 lakhs which has a production rate of 18 bricks per minute.

The completion of the brick kiln has been delayed by about a year due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

โ€œWe have plan to supply bricks to other parts of Mizoram in the coming daysโ€, he said with euphoria.

โ€œThe bricks locally available now are of sub-standard quality and the setting up of the brick kiln is to produce quality bricks at affordable rateโ€, he said.
