Statehood conferral: central Acts deemed inapplicable unless adopted by Mizoram Legislature, preserving customary law and land rights.

The amendment provides constitutional provisions to confer statehood on Mizoram and to limit automatic application of Acts of Parliament to the new State unless adopted by the Mizoram Legislature, while protecting Mizo customary law, religious and social practices, administration of justice under customary law, and ownership and transfer of land; it also prescribes a minimum Legislative Assembly membership and anticipates separate enabling legislation to establish the State.
