First Sitting of CADC Emergency Session 2026 held; Hon’ble CEM calls for implementation of para 13 of Sixth Schedule

Kamalanagar, 20 August 2026: The first sitting of the Emergency Session of the 11th Chakma Autonomous District Council (CADC) was held today at the CADC Session Hall. The sitting was chaired by Dg. Kali Kumar Tongchangya, Chairman, CADC.

Dg. Nirupam Chakma, Hon’ble Chief Executive Member (CEM), CADC and House Leader, placed before the House a number of legislative and financial matters for consideration during the session.

Among the legislative matters placed before the House was the CADC (Constitution, Conduct of Business, etc.) (Ninth Amendment) Rules, 2026, which seeks to amend Rule 11 of the CADC (Constitution, Conduct of Business, etc.) Rules, 2002, as amended in 2003.

The amendment was proposed in compliance with the direction of the Hon’ble Supreme Court requiring the Chakma and Mara Autonomous District Councils in Mizoram to review their rules relating to dual membership.

The other legislative matters placed before the House were:

  1. The CADC (Salaries and Allowances of CEM and EMs) (Third Amendment) Rules, 2026.
  2. The CADC (Salaries and Allowances of Chairman and Deputy Chairman) (Third Amendment) Rules, 2026.
  3. The CADC (Salaries, Allowances and Pension of Members) (Fourth Amendment) Rules, 2026.

The House Leader also placed before the House the Reappropriation of Local Receipt Fund, 2025–2026, and the Demand for Grants, 2026–2027 (Budget Estimate).

While presenting the financial matters, the House Leader stated that Paragraph 13 of the Sixth Schedule to the Constitution of India provides that:

“Estimated receipts and expenditure pertaining to Autonomous District Council are to be shown separately in the annual financial statement. The estimated receipts and expenditure pertaining to an autonomous district which are to be credited to, or are to be made from, the Consolidated Fund of the States shall be first placed before the District Council for discussion and that after such discussion shall be shown separately in the annual financial statement of the State to be laid before the Legislature of the State under Article 202.”

He stated that the provision contained in Paragraph 13 of the Sixth Schedule had never been implemented in Mizoram and required immediate correction. He said that, from the time of its creation in 1972, CADC, the administration has been striving to carry out the constitutional mandate and fulfil the aspirations of its people.

He further stated that financial constraint remains the main stumbling block towards achieving the developmental requirements of the area. He referred to the need for improved road connectivity, educational facilities, employment opportunities for youth, healthcare, livelihood support and skill development, and said that CADC required greater financial assistance from the State Government as well as the Central Government for realizing the Chakma Autonomous District Development Plan.

With regards to Local Receipt collections, the Hon,ble CEM informed the House that against the budgetary target of Rs. 145.00 lakh for the year 2025–2026, the actual collection stood at Rs. 192.48 lakh, registering an increase of more than 32 per cent over the target. He remarked that this achievement under trying circumstances reflected on the high sense of accountability and purpose of the employees.

He also placed before the House the financial position relating to salary expenditure under Normal Grant-in-Aid. The budgetary requirement for salary in the current year has been estimated at Rs. 17,515.38 lakhs, and including the Rs.6,377.79 lakhs deficit carried over from the previous year, the total requirement for salary stands at Rs. 23,893.17 lakhs. Against this requirement only Rs. 16,939.80 lakhs has been sanctioned as Grant-in-Aid from the State Government. This has resulted in a deficit of Rs. 7,608.37 lakhs for the year 2026-27 with Rs. 1,230.58 lakhs being the deficit for the current year and Rs.6,377.79 lakhs being the deficit carried over from the previous year. He further informed the House that to address this deficit, the matter was being pursued with all earnestness before the State Government.

The proposed expenditure from Local Revenue includes works and programmes relating to roads and bridges, school infrastructure, literacy programmes, sports promotion, agriculture and horticulture, village-level infrastructure, social welfare assistance, and maintenance of CADC offices and public facilities.

In his concluding remarks, the Hon’ble CEM stated that the budget has been placed under the difficult circumstances of a salary deficit of Rs. 7,608.37 lakh, a year of Governor’s Rule, and an administration that was still finding its footing. “I have not sought to conceal these difficulties. I have placed them before the House with full transparency, because I believe the people of CADC, and this August House, deserve nothing less than the truth,” he said.

The legislative matters placed before the House will be taken up for discussion and voting during the next sitting on 21 August 2026. The House will also discuss and vote on the Reappropriation of Local Receipt Fund, 2025–2026, on Monday, 24 August 2026.

With no other business to be transacted for the day, the sitting was adjourned. The House will resume tomorrow to discuss the matters placed before it and reconvene on 24 August 2026 to take up the matters scheduled for that sitting.
