Aizawl, February 28: Stuck in their cars in Aizawl's traffic, two Mizoram MLAs and a minister on Tuesday hitchhiked to the assembly on two-wheelers. The photos of Land Revenue and Settlement Minister Lalruatkima, opposition ZPM leader Lalduhoma and ruling MNF legislator F Lalnunmawia riding pillion on scooters through the city's maddening traffic went viral on social media.

They were heading to the assembly to attend the budget session when they were stuck midway due to a traffic snarl, caused by the renovation of the road between Temple Square and Vaivakawn.
