Although unable to be physically present in Thenzawl, Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan arranged a virtual inauguration for the new infrastructure and expressed his regret for not being able to attend due to unfavorable weather conditions in Guwahati and the surrounding areas. His address was delivered during an online session in the afternoon.
In his remarks, the Union Minister stated that Mizoram is a beautiful and geographically significant state, home to diverse communities.
He highlighted that the state’s fertile land and favorable climatic conditions make it an ideal place for horticulture development, despite the challenges posed by its hilly terrain, deep valleys, and the difficulty of large-scale farming due to limited flat land.

He also noted that the Central Government remains committed to the welfare of farmers and agricultural workers in Mizoram, which is reflected in these initiatives. (ANI)
