Whether you are a political scholar, history aficionado, or simply curious about the transformative power of political parties in regional contexts, this book offers a compelling narrative that unveils the multifaceted layers of the Mizo National Front's legacy. It serves as an indispensable resource for anyone seeking a profound understanding of the interplay between patriotism and nationalism, political ambition, cultural identity and the pursuit of a better future.

However, society tends to keep them aside from active life, either due to genuine concern or out of prevailing norms and typify them into a distinct category.
