THE Mizoram House in Vasant Vihar came alive on Saturday (19 Aug 2013) night as Mizo singers and musicians filled the air with electrifying performances during the DMZP Social Night. The evening drew Mizo students and professionals from across Delhi, eager to witness the much-anticipated event.

The program kicked off with a grand dinner organized by DMZP, setting the tone for the vibrant evening. DMZP Vice President Zairemsiama chaired the event, and Lalrempuii Khiangte, a committee member, opened with a prayer. General Secretary Lalramngheta Ngente followed with a detailed report of DMZP’s activities for the 2012–13 session.

The report highlighted several initiatives, including the publication of the DMZP prospectus for Mizo students, the DMZP Talk Show, the Undergraduate Registration Help Desk at Delhi University, and a silent protest against the Hindi/MIL compulsory policy in DU. Other notable activities included sports events, an orientation seminar, the publication of Rihnim (the official newsletter), and the Zonunmawi annual magazine. DMZP’s cultural troupe, T-shirt design projects, blood donation drives (with 100 units donated so far), and an active Facebook group also made the list.

Sandra F. Lalrinpuii, a first-year BA Political Science student, represented the freshers with a heartfelt maiden speech, commending DMZP leaders for their efforts. Academic Secretary Lalthanpuii Sailo, a JNU research scholar, announced the names of Mizo students who had excelled academically, and DMZP advisor Zorammawia IPS presented awards to the achievers. The audience was then treated to a special performance by young singer R. Lalrinmawii, a student of Daulat Ram College.

Former DMZP President Lalsangliana Hnamte, an MPhil student at JNU, inspired the freshers with words of encouragement. The DMZP Zaipawl (Choir) added to the evening’s charm with a harmonious chorus, while Zorammawia addressed the gathering, urging the freshers to honor their parents and strive for success. He concluded with a prayer of blessing. The first session ended with a vote of thanks by DMZP Vice President VL Muanpuia Tochhawng.

The second session, “DMZP Rock Night,” began at 8 PM and lived up to its name. Young boys and girls filled the dance floor, swaying and head-banging to the beats from the DMZP Band. Despite the high energy, the crowd maintained order, enjoying the night in a spirited but peaceful manner. Security personnel from DMTI ensured smooth proceedings.

The DMZP Band, comprising talented young Mizos, stole the show. Lead guitarist Lalbiakmuana, an LLB student at DU, displayed masterful fingerwork on the strings. Drummer Melody, an MA Political Science student at DU, performed with stunning precision, her energy captivating the audience. Bass guitarist Moses Lalremruata, also an MA Political Science student, complemented the band’s dynamic synergy.
