The Mizo Union, formed in the 1940s, initially advocated for:

Complete independence from India
Integration with Assam
Greater autonomy within India
Unification with Burma (Myanmar)

The correct answer is: c) Greater autonomy within India.

The Mizo Union was a political party formed in 1946 by Laldenga. The party’s main goal was to achieve greater autonomy for the Mizo people within India. The Mizo Union was successful in achieving this goal in 1986, when the Indian government granted the Mizoram state a special status within the Indian Union.

Option a) is incorrect because the Mizo Union never advocated for complete independence from India. The party’s goal was always to achieve greater autonomy within India, not independence.

Option b) is incorrect because the Mizo Union never advocated for integration with Assam. The party’s goal was always to achieve greater autonomy for the Mizo people, not integration with another state.

Option d) is incorrect because the Mizo Union never advocated for unification with Burma (Myanmar). The party’s goal was always to achieve greater autonomy for the Mizo people within India, not unification with another country.
