The Mizoram Government will soon introduce major decentralisation and financial reforms. Chief Minister Lalduhoma, who also holds the finance portfolio, shared this plan in the Assembly.
He made the announcement during a discussion on the Mizoram State University (Amendment) Bill, 2026. The Chief Minister said the reforms aim to improve governance and reduce regional imbalance.
Financial Powers to Be Given to Departments
Lalduhoma said the government will launch a clear plan for financial decentralisation in Mizoram. The new system will remove delays caused by repeated approvals.
Department secretaries will get the power to grant administrative approval and spending clearance. They will not need to seek permission from the Finance Department for routine matters.
The Chief Minister called this step a major administrative reform. He said it will make the system faster and more efficient.
Reducing Delays and Improving Governance
The government wants to cut down bureaucratic hurdles. Faster approvals will help departments complete projects on time.
Lalduhoma said the focus is on good governance, transparency, and accountability. The reforms will help improve public service delivery across the state.
Focus on Balanced Regional Development
The Chief Minister also spoke about regional development in Mizoram. He said some areas have lagged behind for many years.
The government plans to decentralise institutions across different regions. This will ensure a fair distribution of resources and opportunities.
A New Direction for State Administration
The proposed reforms mark an important shift in Mizoram’s governance model. The government believes decentralisation will strengthen administration and speed up development.
These steps aim to create a more responsive system and support balanced growth across Mizoram.
