Aizawl: Mizoram minister for information, communication & technology Vanlalthlana on Wednesday said all the 41 departments in the state secretariat, including the chief minister's office, are now using e-office that has resulted in official files being moved faster and with fewer hassles
Addressing a media conference in Aizawl, Vanlalthlana said 6,492 files have been created under the e-office and the files have moved 63,565 times.
He said pending files are almost zero.
"The state govt was in favour of introducing e-office and steps were taken in this regard since Jan 2024 and Rs 1.99 crore was received from the department of administrative reforms & public grievance (DARPG), Govt of India under the State Collaborative Initiative Scheme (SCI) on Oct 11, 2024," he said.
The minister said the department of personnel and administrative reforms (DP&AR) is the nodal department for implementation of the e-office project while the ICT department is implementing the project.
The national informatics centre (NIC) designed the software while deployment and hosting have been taken up by RailTel, he said.
The minister also revealed that Mizoram's official websites have been subjected to cyberattacks, especially after the India and Pakistan conflict, requiring upgrade and improvement of the ICT infrastructure in the state. "It was decided that from Ctrl-S Data Centre where we used to host our server, we have been shifting to Google Virtual Private Server (VPS) which is regarded as more secure. Due to this exercise, an office circular was issued on June 12 that different govt websites will not be available for sometime due to server upgrade," he said, adding 23 official websites of different departments have become functional again.
He, however, admitted that it will take time to conduct an internal security audit of all 318 official websites under the mizoram.gov.in domain and 14 web applications as well as 12 websites under ac.in and edu.in.

Lloyds Metals gets environmental clearance to expand iron ore mining capacity
Lloyds Metals and Energy said that it has received the environmental clearance (EC) to expand its iron ore mining capacity to 55 million tonnes per annum (MTPA). This clearance, granted by the Ministry of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change, Government of India, positions LMEL's mine to become the largest iron ore operation in the country. With Gadchiroli emerging as a steel industry hub, LMEL's expanded mine will serve as a foundational enabler for these downstream industries. Detailing its mining roadmap, Lloyds Metals stated that in the initial years, the company will mine 26 MTPA of Hematite (direct sales ore). The subsequent ramp-up to 55 MTPA capacity will include 45 MT BHQ (banded hematite quartzite). Gradually, as beneficiation plants become operational, LMEL will replace Hematite DSO (direct shipping ore) with beneficiated ore. Regarding beneficiation, the company is establishing one of the worlds largest iron ore beneficiation facilities in Hedri. A pilot plant of 5 TPH (tonnes per hour) is already operational, achieving desired results with more than 66% Fe and a yield exceeding 35%. Based on these outcomes, the company is proceeding with the detailed engineering of the beneficiation complex. The concentrate produced post-beneficiation will be world-class pellet and sinter-feed material. The effective date of commencement of operations for enhanced capacity would be after receipt of consent to operate (CTO), from Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) which has been applied for and shall be received shortly. Balasubramanian Prabhakaran, managing director, said: "This milestone is a testament to the unwavering support of the local communities and the government's confidence in Lloyds Metals' capabilities. This clearance paves the way for us to create long-term value for all our stakeholders while contributing meaningfully to regional development." Lloyds Metals and Energy (LMEL) is engaged in the iron ore mining at Surjagarh village, Gadchiroli district, Maharashtra, and manufacturing of sponge iron. The companys sponge iron plant is in Chandrapur district of Maharashtra with an installed capacity of 340,000 MTPA along with a 34MW captive power plant. On a consolidated basis, net profit of Lloyds Metals & Energy declined 27.10% to Rs 201.88 crore while net sales declined 23.49% to Rs 1182.66 crore in Q4 March 2025 over Q4 March 2024. The scrip rose 0.25% to currently trade at Rs 1526.65 on the BSE.
