The three-day winter session of Mizoram assembly began today with customary obituary references.

Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla and Leader of Opposition Vanlalzawma paid rich tributes to former legislators L P Thangzika and J Lalthangliana which was followed by a minute-long silence in their memory.

Thangzika, who died on September six was a former speaker, while Lalthangliana, who died on November five, was the former minister of state for tourism and art and culture besides being a journalist by profession.

Thanhawla also informed the house about the death of the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalithaa though official obituary reference was not made as the funeral is yet to be performed.
