Source: Chakmas decry ‘racist’ Lalthanhawla
The Aizawl Post had reported that the Chief Minister while speaking at a function organised by Mizo Zirlai Pawl (MZP) to felicitate the HSLC toppers at Vanappa Hall, Aizawl on 27 April 2011 called the Chakmas as “hnawksak” (“nuisance”) in Mizoram, and referred to Brus as “Tuikuk” (literal meaning: “water insects”), and other mainstream non-tribals as “vai chheho”, which literally means “useless or insignificant people”.
In a joint statement, the Chakma organisations stated that such kind of “racist” remarks/references against other communities coming out from the state’s Chief Minister is uncalled for, highly objectionable and has the potential to create further sense of fear, insecurity and alienation in the minds of the minority communities in the state.
“We consider the alleged statement/speech of Chief Minister Lalthanhawla as “racial profiling” against the Chakma community and insult to all the Chakmas. Racial profiling/ racial discrimination is explicitly prohibited under national and international laws”, stated the joint statement signed by representatives of eleven Chakma organisations.
The joint statement added that “Chief Minister Lalthanhawla has alleged racial discrimination against the people of North East region by the mainstream society of India in both national and international forums. He must live by his conviction against racial discrimination and not practice the same racial discrimination against the ethnic minority communities, who are his own people, in his own home state, i.e. Mizoram.”

Not only an irresponsible act coming from the state’s Chief Minister but shamefully racist in nature. Such attitude and treatment towards any community is unacceptable. It is instances like this one that will make any good Christian Mizos bow their heads in shame in front of the outside world.I condemn!

Punongchan- Thank you for speaking up about the minorities in Mizoram. People who have not travelled beyond Aizawl are not aware of the issues that Chakmas, Reang, migrant workers are facing in Mizoram.
Despite the Christian teachings -we have done/ gone all wrong here. I feel really sad to read some of the comments above. The Bible did not teach us to pick some race/ tribe to hate.

Edit text 31:Punongchan- Thank you for speaking up about the minorities in Mizoram. My message was deleted before I could edit it. The above people who commented might not be even aware that there is a Minorities Committee in Mizoram.
Let the message of your people and Reangs’ as stated in the newspaper article about your stance against the CM of Mizoram be the evidence of what you people strive for as individual and a group and the discrimination you face. I have spent time with some Chakma people in the south of Mizoram, Reang people in Kolasib district. I thank you for your hospitalities (if I may address the two groups together). I had a good time.

Those who are born in Mizoram = Ok
Those who are not born in Mizoram = not excused… Mizoram = not your land ( by LAW) Arakan/Bangladesh = your place.
What the Mizo’s are worried about:
Chakma’s and Tuikuk’s birth rate. If you visit their villages you’d notice they’re typical tribal families with a couple or a few more children in a household. But if one studied deeper into their birth rate, since 50 or so years ago, it seems like they multiply like rabbits. Or so to say, we the Mizo’s suspect the Chakma’s and Tuikuk’s have a lot of fully grown births!
AND THAT SUCKS REAL BAD

The burning of Chakma Schools and homes, rape & abuse of Chakma women, snatching of domestic animals by a radical mizo student organisation in 1993-95 are still fresh in Chakmas mind. Police never registered any complaints, so most educated Mizos would never know abt it. I was there at my village, when 2 truck full loads of supposedly MZP pple reached in the evening and immediately ordered the Village Council members to arrange 2-3 big pigs and dogs accompanied by local rice wine.They enjoyed their feast and started roaming around the village and caught many village girls unaware and what happened next was shameful. The next day, called everyone in the Bazar shade and whoever couldn’t come or out of station wre declared Foreigners. These are just some of many shameful stories in those years. Dangu Lalthanhawla is actually a very loved person by the Chakmas. They used to look upto him. Now here he is, branding the same people as HNAWKSAK. There is no doubt he is playing politics by deviding the citizen of Mizoram and instigating organization like MZP to create tension. Can you imagine any head of state making such RACIST remarks like “Hnawksak”. Yes, most educated Mizos in Towns & cities do not know much abt Chakmas. Chakmas & Mizos(chakmas used to called them Lusei/kuki) have been living together for centuries from Mamit district bordering tripura to Burma.
@Vangchia, u sound very radical in your thoughts. You are assuming things. Do you know what was the population of Mizos in 1970s or 80s and now. Just for e.g. Plz take the pain to look at population census of Demagiri (Tlabung) in Lunglei district. Just 20 yrs back, the upper Demagiri called Zodin was almost empty. Now it is bigger and much populated than Demagiri itself. and let me tell you they are all Mizos. Where did they come from? In Jan 2010 a group of Mizos were caught by BSF at Marpara while crossing over to India from Bangladesh. Now can u cite an instance where Chakmas were caught while crossing the border. PEACE is the biggest contribution by the Chakmas of Mizoram. You know where those news of Drugs, smuggling, weapons are coming from? Of course from the North-East Mizoram. So, Thanhawla’s remark might have fitted those not the Chakmas. And all of us must codemn Dangu Thanhawlas Racist remark and fail him by remaining united and work towrds the development of the Sate.

This is sure to damage the Chief Minister’s reputation and put the state of Mizoram in a bad limelight as the regional and national media widely picks up the story.
Thinking back how he so much sounded like a cry baby when he talked about his personal experiences of discrimination he faced in mainland India during a trip to Singapore.
Double standards? I say YES!
What a stupid way to garner bad publicity for himself and, worse for his own people and the state he rules.
A wannabe Narendra Modi in the making? Hope Pu Thanhawla clarifies his stand.

On 7th December 2010 while addressing on his tour in Tawi Constituency – Home Minister,Dangu R.Lalzirliana said, “the people of Mizoram have never been troubled by Chakmas living in Mizoram.” @Dangu Hawla, plz learn from your own Home Minister. You know people will laugh at you when you cry of being a victim of Racism and discrimination. Well, you know if any Chakma houses burn or chakma women raped, tortured or Racist crime takes place, you will be held responsible. You know, law is not that weak that you can bend as per your suitability.
