Chin, Kuki Mizo orZomi , which can be the most acceptable identity for Zo..?
Mizo or Tripuri, and the Indian nation, unjust in the past, is today a more acceptable political identity than their cousins have across the border in Burma.
And these ideas will keep changing because nations are even more fluid than cultures.
The above is a comment by Vikram in his latest post What is India?.
Has Mizo become that popular........?.
Vikram’s assertion may be true in this part of the world but it is far from the truth in a place like Burma (where mind you half the Zo population still lives in spite of migration, immigration and political uncertainty).
Although Zomi has been advocated by mostly the Tiddim-speaking population Chin is very much part THE political identity of a Zo in Burma.
Even Lushai-speaking community has to identify as Chin in Burma.
So I rest my case….tell me what you think.
