HISTORICAL INFORMATION
 
  Mizoram was inhabited by the tribal groups of Tibeto-Burmese race. In 1966 the Mizos resorted to the use of armed struggle to put forth their demands to set up a homeland. With the implementation of the North-Eastern Reorganization Act in 1972, Mizoram became a Union Territory and as a sequel to the signing of the historic memorandum of settlement between Government of India and the Mizo National Front in 1986, it was granted statehood on 20 February 1987.
