<h1>Mizoram Gains Statehood: Constitution 53rd Amendment Ensures Legislative Autonomy, Protects Mizo Culture and Land Rights.</h1> The Constitution (53rd Amendment) Act, 1986, addresses the conferment of statehood on the Union Territory of Mizoram, following a Memorandum of Settlement signed by the Government of India, the Government of Mizoram, and the Mizo National Front. It mandates legislative and administrative measures, including constitutional amendments, to implement statehood. The Act specifies that certain Acts of Parliament will not apply to Mizoram unless approved by its Legislature, particularly concerning Mizo religious practices, customary law, and land ownership. The new state's Legislative Assembly will have at least forty members. The Bill seeks constitutional amendments to accommodate these provisions.
