Aizawl normal, night curfew lifted

AIZAWL, May 20 – The situation in Aizawl was now normal and the district administration Wednesday lifted night curfew clamped in the city since Saturday following ethnic flare-up triggered by the murder of a Mizo girl by two non-tribal coolies.

Aizawl district superintendent of police L.T. Hrangchal said following the lifting of curfew against non-Mizos, a few non-tribals were seen on the streets and most of them had resumed their normal avocation.

Aizawl Deputy Commissionr C Tawnluaia also informed his counterpart in neighbouring Silchar in Assam that the situation in Aizawl was completely normal. However, Aizawl-Silchar NH 54 was still closed by Silchar truck drivers association.
