Abstract Mizoram is one of the seven states of North-Eastern India situated in the extreme corner of India.. The Mizo tribes are formed out of the same tradition over two centuries.. Primarily, before the colonization of the British rule every village was under the authority of the Chieftain. The Chief was the only highest authority of the village.

The culture of the Chieftain gradually abolished by themselves after the advised of the British and the modification their culture. Still now they keep their traditional culture in high regard. The Mizo civilization occurred during the 20th century. In the year 1864 when the English missionaries occupy in the heart of the Mizos , since then the Mizo culture had been almost changed .The main occupation of Mizoram is agriculture .They have three main festivals namely; Chapchar Kut , Mim Kut and Pawl Kut . All of these festivals are closely related to jhum- cultivation . And among festivals Chapchar Kut is the most popular and biggest festival in Mizoram.Though jhum–cultivation is prohibited all over the world , there are some suggestions and remedies for improving jhum-cultivation particularly in this state.
