The Zoram People's Movement (abbreviated: ZPM) is an alliance of six regional parties formed under the leadership of MLA and former IPS Officer Lalduhoma.[6] The party advocates for secularism and the protection of religious minorities in India.[7] In the 2023 Mizoram Assembly polls, the party won 27 seats out of 40 seats and Lalduhoma became the Chief Minister of Mizoram.[8]
In the 2018 Mizoram Legislative Assembly election, Zoram People's Movement emerged in support of some independent candidates and won eight seats.[9] Zoram People's Movement was reformed as a political party in 2019. Mizoram People's Conference left the alliance shortly thereafter[10] due to ZPM becoming a political party. In 2020, some members of the Zoram Nationalist Party (ZNP) also left the alliance.
In 2023, the party won all 11 wards in the newly formed Lunglei Municipal Council.[9]

History
Zoram People's Movement (ZPM) contested 36 out of 40 seats in the Mizoram assembly polls, ultimately winning eight seats, in the 2018 Mizoram Legislative Assembly election.[11] The ZPM was created to create a political alternative to the Mizo National Front and the Indian National Congress in Mizoram.[12] Their 2018 platform advocated re-imposing a ban on liquor.[13][14] The ZPM was officially registered with Election Commission of India in July 2019[15] after submitting a request on 21 January 2019.[16] In the 2023 Mizoram Legislative Assembly election, the party won 27 out of 40 seats and formed the government.
