New Delhi, Feb 6, 2026: Rajya Sabha MP K. Vanlalvena has written to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, seeking a central investigation into the alleged misuse of public funds in land acquisition related to Lengpui Airport and Siphir village in Mizoram.
In his letter dated February 6, 2026, Vanlalvena alleged that land acquired by the Mizoram government for the installation of air defence systems by the Indian Air Force was purchased at exorbitant rates, violating provisions of the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013.
The MP claimed that mandatory safeguards under the Act—such as publication of acquisition notices, consultations with village councils, and conduct of Social Impact Assessment studies—were bypassed. He further alleged that around ₹187.90 crore of public money may have been siphoned off through questionable intermediaries, raising concerns of corruption and collusion.
Citing the seriousness of the allegations, Vanlalvena urged the Union government to direct a central investigating agency to conduct a thorough inquiry, ensure accountability, and bring those responsible to justice.
The MP sought the Home Minister's intervention at the earliest, stressing that the matter involves misuse of funds meant for public welfare.
