\"Mizoram<\/div>\n
Guwahati: Nearly 30 fresh refugees<\/a> came to Mizoram<\/a> from the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) of southeast Bangladesh during the last two days.<\/p>\n

Officials said that the new arrivals have been given refuge at Vathuampui Village in southern Mizoram\u2019s Lawngtlai District.With the latest influx, the total number of Bangladeshi<\/a> refugees taking shelter in Mizoram has risen to 1,901, comprising 505 women and 810 children.<\/p>\n

Majority of the Bangladeshi refugees are sheltered in 12 camps, while some have been living with their relatives and friends.<\/p>\n

The majority of these refugees belong to the Kuki-Chin<\/a> community, primarily the Bawm and Pang tribes, who fled due to conflict between the Bangladesh army and the Kuki-Chin National Army<\/a> (KNA), fighting for greater autonomy for tribals in the CHT.<\/p>\n

There are around 34,000 refugees including 10,905 women and 12,844 children from Myanmar<\/a> are now sheltered in all 11 districts of the border state.<\/p>\n

The Myanmar refugees fled to Mizoram after the military coup in the neighbouring country on February 1, 2021, and the subsequent civil war.Mizoram is also providing shelter to around 9,000 Kuki-Zomi-Hmar tribals who were displaced after the ethnic<\/a> strife began in the neighbouring Manipur in May last year.The Myanmar, Bangladeshi and Manipur refugees have close ethnic ties, traditional and cultural similarity with the Mizos of Mizoram.
