Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended congratulations to the Zoram People's Movement (ZPM) and Lalduhoma for their resounding victory in the Mizoram Assembly elections. Expressing assurance for comprehensive support, Modi reiterated their commitment to Mizoram's development.

Following the state's election outcome, Modi also conveyed gratitude to supporters of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Affirming the party's dedication to uplifting Mizoram's progress, he commended the relentless efforts of BJP workers in advocating good governance and connecting with the populace.

The Prime Minister's statements came in the wake of ZPM's significant win, securing 27 out of 40 seats, with the Mizo National Front (MNF) clinching 10 seats. BJP secured two seats while the Congress managed one, reflecting the evolving political landscape in Mizoram.

Notably, Modi specifically congratulated K Beichhua and K Hrahmo from the BJP for their election as MLAs, extending his best wishes for their legislative endeavors.

Simultaneously, Mizoram witnessed the resignation of Chief Minister Zoramthanga from the Raj Bhavan after his party's defeat in the elections. Zoramthanga, who lost his own seat to ZPM's Lalthansanga, submitted his resignation to Governor Dr Hari Babu Kambhampati.

The Election Commission's report highlighted MNF's acquisition of nine seats with one seat still being contested, while the Zoram People's Movement seized a commanding majority of 27 seats in the 40-member House.

Meanwhile, the ZPM confirmed its intention to stake a claim for government formation in Mizoram, planning a consultative meeting among the newly elected MLAs and senior party leaders. This political shift sets the stage for transformative changes in the northeastern state's governance.
