Are there any exceptions to the protection provided to the state of Mizoram under the provided text?
Yes, there is an exception to the protection provided to the state of Mizoram under the provided text. The exception is that "nothing in this clause shall apply to any Central Act in force in the Union territory of Mizoram immediately before the commencement of the Constitution (Fifty-third Amendment) Act, 1986." This means that existing Central Acts already in force in the Union territory of Mizoram are not protected by this clause and can still apply to the State of Mizoram.
