Mizoram is one of the states of Northeast India, with Aizawl as its capital city. The name is derived from Mi (people), Zo (lofty place, such as a hill) and Ram (land – in Mizo language), and thus Mizoram implies “Land of the hill people”.

Like several other northeastern states of India, Mizoram was previously part
of Assam until 1972, when it was carved out as a Union Territory. It became the 23rd state of India, a step above Union Territory in federal autonomy, on 20 February 1987.
