The Mizoram Youth Commission Act, 2025
The Mizoram Youth Commission Act, 2025, establishes a dedicated statutory body to oversee the welfare, skill development, and employment prospects of the youth in Mizoram. Defining "youth" as individuals aged 13 to 35, the Act empowers the Commission to act as a bridge between the government and young citizens. It facilitates research, promotes entrepreneurship, and provides guidance on education and career opportunities. By granting the Commission civil court powers to investigate and advise, the Act ensures a structured approach to youth empowerment. For citizens, this means access to organized support systems, skill-building initiatives, and a formal platform for youth-related policy advocacy.
