The Mizoram (Pension for members of the defunct Mizo District Council and of the defunct Pawi Lakher Regional Council) Act, 1994 [1]

Finance19946 sections

This Act regulates pension payments for former members of the defunct Mizo District Council and the defunct Pawi-Lakher Regional Council in Mizoram. Applying to representatives who took an oath of allegiance to India, it establishes monthly pension rates retroactively starting from 1972, with periodic increases up to 1992. The law details restrictions to prevent members from receiving duplicate pensions or salaries if they hold other government offices. This legislation matters because it provides financial security to the early local leaders who shaped Mizoram's governance during its political transition, acknowledging their public service while ensuring the responsible use of public funds.
