Mizoram Deputy Chief Minister Tawnluia said over 30 projects are being executed under the Smart City Mission in the state.

Tawnluia, who holds the Public Health Engineer and Urban Development and Poverty Alleviation (UD&PA) portfolios, laid the foundation stone for a multipurpose ground at Aizawl's Zarkaw area on Tuesday.

Many smart City Mission projects have been delayed due to COVID-19 pandemic.

According to the deputy chief minister, Union Home Minister Amit Shah would lay the foundation stone for the proposed cultural centre.

He said that Laldenga Cultural Centre would be constructed at Assam Rifles ground area in Aizawl.

During at meeting with chief minister Zoramthanga in Delhi on Tuesday, Shah told the CM that he will inaugurate Assam Rifles complex at Zokhawsang near Aizawl and lay the foundation stone of Laldenga Cultural Centre on April 1.
