Mizoram assembly adjourned sine die

Aizawl: The two-day emergent session of the Mizoram state legislature was today adjourned sine die by speaker Hiphei.

The assembly today passed the Mizoram Motor Vehicles Taxation (Amendment) Bill, 2016 as introduced by state Transport Minister John Rotluangliana which replaced the Ordinance issued by the state governor in July.

Elections to the three assembly financial committees, Public Accounts Committee, Committee on Estimates and Committee on Public Undertakings, were held after which Hiphei said that they would soon appoint the chairmen of the committees.

The assembly had ratified the 122nd amendment to the Constitution by adopting an official resolution moved by the state finance minister Lalsawta yesterday.
