Mizoram MP says ‘not being allowed to raise issues’ with FMR removal along Myanmar border in RS

Mizoram Rajya Sabha Member K. Vanlalvena, of the Mizo National Front, an National Democratic Alliance member, on Friday said he is not being allowed to speak in the House on the issue of India’s decision to remove the Free Movement Regime (FMR) along the Indo-Myanmar border despite submitting an application to raise it during Zero Hour four times. 

He said it was a “burning issue” in the States along the Indo-Myanmar border but Tribal MP’s from there are “not given a  single minute to raise this issue”. Mr. Vanlalvena added that he had sent a memorandum to Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday expressing “serious concern and resentment” over the decision to remove the FMR.
