The present-day Mizoram, which was known as Lushai Hills, is located in the northeast corner of India. The term Lushai Hills was named by the British as an administrative unit, merged with the Indian Union as the outcome of an accomplished political entity. The process, however, took a rough road because of British policy towards the Mizo. The British, therefore, adopted a policy of non-intervention towards the people by allowing them to settle their own affairs among themselves after they fully annexed the Lushai Hills in 1890. The British policy enforced through the Chiefs was repressive and became a burden for the common people because they had to serve two masters—the British and the Chiefs. This dual administration system caused untold suffering, dividing the people into two political factions demanding different political status for Mizoram after the British. This paper elucidates the origin of the second political party in Mizoram and its inclination towards secessionist ideologies. The study attempts to examine the chaotic scene at the dawn of India's independence in Mizoram. The present study also focuses on evaluating the performance of UMFO in the District Council election.
