AIZAWL, July 30 NNN: The proposed total bandh of Aizawl on Tuesday was called off following the assurance of the Mizoram government to the Mizo Students Union (MSU) to hand over the task of recruiting government employees to the Mizoram Public Service Commission (MPSC).
MSU lauded Mizoram chief minister Lal Thanhawla today while taking to the media in Aizawl.
Mizo Students Union (MSU) had planned to impose total bandh of Aizawl today against state government’s failure to hand over the task of recruiting government employees to the Mizoram Public Service Commission (MPSC).
The student body said that as per amendment of Regulations of Functions of Mizoram Public Service Commission (MPSC) in 2011, most of the recruitment is being transferred from MPSC to state government. The MSU is against this regulation of 2011 and now it is taking steps to reverse the ammendment of Regulations of Functions of the MPSC.
MSU had approaced the state government on several occasions but the latter had turned a deaf ear to the plea of the students’ body. Earlier, the MSU had resolved to carry out further bandh in every district headquarters if the government was not obliging to the demand of MSU and take necessary steps.
