Delhi-based group calls for probe into torching of MTP post in Mizoram

A post belonging to the MTP network in Mizoram was set ablaze, prompting concerns over the safety of public infrastructure in the northeastern state. The incident, reported by local media, involved the deliberate torching of the facility, though no casualties were immediately confirmed.

In response, a Delhi‑based civil society group has formally appealed to both state and central authorities, seeking a thorough investigation into the arson. The group’s statement emphasized the need for swift action to identify the perpetrators and to prevent similar attacks in the future.

Officials in Mizoram have not yet issued a detailed response, but the call for a probe adds pressure on law‑enforcement agencies to address the matter promptly. The incident underscores ongoing challenges in safeguarding government installations in remote regions.
