According to health minister Lalrinliana, this would be the first medical college in the remote and backward border state with a population of around nine lakh.

Lalrinliana said this college and hospital would rise from what he has described as the “ruins” of the previous state government’s much vaunted referral hospital at Falkawn near the hilltop capital town of Aizawl.
