In a significant step toward lasting peace, cadres of the Hmar Peoples’ Convention (Democratic) – Lalhmingthanga Sanate faction formally surrendered their arms and joined the mainstream during a government-organized ceremony in Sesawng, Mizoram, attended by Chief Minister Lalduhoma and other senior leaders. The event follows a peace agreement signed on April 14, 2026, between the Mizoram government and the faction. At the ceremony, cadres handed over their weapons and pledged to renounce violence. Chief Minister Lalduhoma described the development as a major milestone, declaring Mizoram a fully peaceful state and urging unity among all communities.
