Mizo villagers returning from their work

Village women in Baktwang returning after their work.
Baktwang is about 70 km southeast of state capital Aizawl.
It is a village where the worlds largest family lives.

Ziona Chana, head of the worlds largest family has 39 wives, 86 children, 14 daughters in-law and 34 grand-children all living under one roof in a huge mansion which they lovingly call 'Chhuanthar Run' meaning 'House of the new generation'. All together, the 174 members of the Ziona family live in Chhuanthar Run or in short (C.T.R), a rather military-like fashion.
