The All Mizoram Village Council Association (AMVCA) has called the state government's move to shorten the present term of village councils (VC) "undemocratic" and stated that they will dispute the order in the high court, PTI reported.

According to a notification issued last week by the local administration department, the current term of Mizoram village councils, except those in three autonomous district council areas in the state's south, has been reduced by six months and will end on February 19 next year.
