State Planning Board Vice-Chairman meets CADC CEM, Councillors

KAMALANAGAR, November 5: Pu Dr. Kenneth Chawngliana, Vice-Chairman of the Mizoram State Planning Board, held a meeting with the Chief Executive Member (CEM) of the Chakma Autonomous District Council (CADC), Dg. Nirupam Chakma, the Chairman, Dg. Kali Kumar Tongchangya, and the Councillors at the CADC Rest House Conference Hall, Kamalanagar, today. The Executive Secretary, Deputy Secretary and heads of departments were also present.

During the meeting, the CEM apprised the Vice-Chairman of the major challenges faced by the Council, particularly the shortage of funds for payment of salaries and poor road connectivity. Despite these financial constraints, he said, the present administration had undertaken road repairs using the Councilโ€™s own local receipts, as a result of which vehicular movement has now been restored up to Longpuighat.

The CEM submitted several representations seeking financial assistance for various developmental projects of the Council. These included a request for funds under SASCI to complete the new Secretariat building, which has remained incomplete for more than 12 years. He pointed out that the Council continues to function from its existing Secretariat building, constructed in 1992, which is now in poor condition and inadequate to meet its requirements.

The CEM also requested that three projects proposed by the Council, including two relating to school and education infrastructure and one on fisheries development, with a total outlay of Rs. 2,529.94 lakh, be included in the Stateโ€™s priority list for funding under Centrally Sponsored Schemes (CSS). He pointed out that CADC has not received any project under CSS through the State priority list since 2020.

Other proposals included a request for Rs. 2.02 crore under SASCI for the renovation of CADC Rest Houses at Aizawl, Lawngtlai and Kamalanagar, and Rs. 10 crore for the reconstruction of the Rest House at Lunglei, which has been declared unsafe for further use. The CEM impressed upon the Vice-Chairman the importance of Lunglei Rest House, which provides accommodation to a large number of visitors, particularly people from economically weaker sections who travel to the town for medical treatment.

Financial assistance was also sought for furnishing the newly constructed student hostel at Chakma House, Aizawl, to make it operational.

The Vice-Chairman heard the concerns and requests raised by the Council. Addressing the gathering thereafter, he said that the project proposals submitted by the CEM would be looked into, particularly the completion of the Secretariat building, which would be taken up on priority basis. He also expressed his intention to visit Kamalanagar again after the building is completed. Earlier in the day, he had inspected the new Secretariat building and advised the Council to prepare a fresh estimate for completion of the project.

Dg. Kali Kumar Tongchangya, Chairman, offered the vote of thanks on behalf of the Council, expressing gratitude to the Vice-Chairman for visiting Kamalanagar and for his assurance of support.

CADC Welcomes proposal to establish MCAB branch at Kamalanagar

Kamalanagar, October 22, 2026: The Chief Executive Member (CEM) of the Chakma Autonomous District Council (CADC), Dg. Nirupam Chakma, has welcomed the proposal to establish a branch of Mizoram Cooperative Apex Bank Limited (MCAB) at Kamalanagar, expressing hope that it would improve access to banking services and create new opportunities for employment, entrepreneurship and business development in the CADC area.

The proposal was discussed at a meeting held at the CADC Art & Culture Hall, Kamalanagar, on Thursday. The meeting was chaired by Pronit Bikash Chakma, Executive Secretary, CADC, and attended by MCAB Chairman Pu Lalnunsanga as the Chief Guest, along with CADC Councillors, officers and staff, and representatives of cooperative societies.

Addressing the gathering, the CEM said that the existing branches of the State Bank of India (SBI) and Mizoram Rural Bank (MRB) were insufficient to meet the banking needs of the large population in the CADC area. He stressed the need for additional banking facilities not only at Kamalanagar but also in other populous areas, including Longpuighat, Borapansury, New Jagnasury and Parva. He expressed hope that improvement in road connectivity would encourage more banks to expand their services to these areas.

The CEM also emphasised the need to promote self-employment among local youth, noting that employment opportunities within CADC alone could not meet the growing demand for jobs. Referring to the Government of Mizoramโ€™s Bana Kaih policy, he highlighted the potential of agriculture, tourism, veterinary services, fisheries, small-scale industries, handloom and handicrafts to generate livelihood opportunities in the CADC area. He said the Council would encourage young people to take up entrepreneurial activities, provide opportunities for skill development and facilitate access to financial assistance from banks and other institutions. He also expressed CADCโ€™s willingness to extend the necessary cooperation in facilitating the proposed MCAB branch.

MCAB Chairman Pu Lalnunsanga thanked the CADC leadership and participants for the warm reception. Describing the CADC area as an important commercial hub, he said there was considerable scope for cooperation to create more employment and business opportunities. He expressed hope that the proposed branch would make credit facilities more accessible, helping people become self-reliant and enabling existing businesses to expand. He appealed to all concerned to extend their support and cooperation towards the successful establishment of the branch.

Earlier in the day, the MCAB team held an interaction with shareholder members of cooperative societies at the Tourist Lodge, Kamalanagar. The Chairman was accompanied by Pu Lalrinchhana, Vice-Chairman, MCAB; Pu Pu Lalbiakmawia, Vice-Chairman, MAHFED, and Pu K. Vanlalhriata, Assistant Grade-I, Dawrpui Branch.
