“Cong needs power to feed the hungry”

MPCC president and former Chief Minister Lalthanhawla claimed that the Congress need to form the government in this year’s Assembly elections because the hungry need to be fed. Speaking to party men at the at the Congress Bhavan, Lalthanhawla was emphatic that the Congress returns to power or else it would mean Mizoram would remain in a wrecked condition.

“It is mandatory that we overthrow the MNF Government in this year’s elections. If we are to be happy at year-end, we must have a good beginning from the New Year.

Three States in the region will face elections this year and if the Congress does not do well in the other two States, it should do well at least in Mizoram”, he said. He also said, “If we are forced to remain in the opposition again, Mizoram will become a wreck,” Hawla warned.”

He assured his party men that if the Congress formed the government through God’s grace, their first task would be to feed the hungry and to give the people sustainable livelihoods so that they will no longer become hungry. Speaking about the current situation in Mizoram, Hawla alleged that corruption has become rampant in the State while Mizoram has the worst law and order situation among NE states. “In order to make the State normal again, corruption has to be uprooted and we should be so clean that the public should be able to turn us inside out whenever they want,” he added.
