AIZAWL:

Mizoram Chief Minister Zoramthanga, on Sunday, held a virtual meeting with Myanmar’s Foreign Minister Zin Mar Aung to discuss the current political situation in the neighbouring country.

The CM had earlier written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi urging him not to ignore the humanitarian crisis in the neighbouring country.

“I understand that there are certain foreign policy issues where India needs to proceed cautiously. However, we cannot ignore this humanitarian crisis,” he had said in the letter.

However, Official sources said the meeting was against protocol as the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) did not approve it and, that they will convey the same to the chief minister.
