MNF to decide on supporting UPA

Aizawl, Jul 10 : The ruling Mizo National Front in Mizoram has authorised its Political Affairs Committee (PAC) to take a decision on whether it should support the UPA government or side with its former ally NDA in the event of a trust vote in Parliament.

Lalhmingliana, Rajya Sabha MP said on Thursday that the meeting of MNF office bearers briefly discussed the issue on Wednesday following Left’s withdrawal of support from the UPA government and decided that the PAC should take the final decision.Vanlalzawma, the lone Lok Sabha member from Mizoram, said he would abide by the party’s decision.

The MNF was one of the constituents of the NDA but snapped its ties with the latter in 2006 due to differences of opinion on religious matters with the BJP.
