On 6 August, a joint meeting of CDSU's parent bodies viz Chin Students Association, Hmar Students Association, Khangthah Zuun Pawl, Komrem Students' Union, Mizo Zirlai Pawl, Siamsinpawlpi, Thadou-Kuki Students' Union, Zillai and Zou Sangnaupang Pawlpi has unanimously accepted that deployment of Commandos and IRBs in hill districts on the ground of law and order will not serve any purpose but invite more trouble which would be detrimental to the existing serenity.
The proposed rally was an outcome of the collective view, and according to an inside source, it has even been dubbed as 'mother-of-all-rally'.
Appealing on all civil societies and organizations and all peace loving citizens to join the mass rally on 11 August, CDSU General Secretary Lalkhohau said, the rally would be an attempt to rein the existing peace and security for the welfare of the people and for the future.
The CDSU as well as Zomi Human Rights Foundation today condemn the BT Road fake encounter and assured that it will extend support to any form of democratic agitation launched by civil societies of the state in this regard.
A statement of condemnation issued by ZHRF said even though security personnel were an important organ of the government they were still duty bound in a welfare state as was envisage by the constitution.
