No.489/2021-2022
Aizawl the 8th February, 2022: The Chief Minister's Office issued a press communique yesterday (dt.7.2.2022) in response to a newspaper report appearing in certain newspapers which carried a story regarding a dinner between Chief Ministers of Assam and Mizoram in November last year at New Delhi.
The Chief Minister's Office clarifies that while the Chief Minister Pu Zoramthanga did attend said dinner, it was on the invitation of his counterpart, the Chief Minister of Assam. The dinner was hosted by Chief Minister Assam at Assam House in New Delhi on evening of 25th November 2021. The newspaper report that the dinner was hosted by Chief Minister of Mizoram and that a certain Mr. Abu Mazumdar's attendance of said dinner was due to his invitation is totally baseless bereft of any credibility. The CM's Office further states that Mr. Abu Mazumdar was never a part of the team from Mizoram that attended the dinner.
