When the work was completed, the parade ground had a sheer cliff of 60 feet on side and 150 feet of filling in on the other. The cliff face of this field.[6]

It has been used for addressing the people of Mizoram by politicians like Jawaharlal Nehru who visited Aizawl in 1965.[7] Lammual has also been the place where a helicopter landed for the first time in Mizoram in 1962.[8] It is the venue for Chapchar Kut festival, a festival of Mizo people.[9] There was initially a plan to construct the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Lammual ground[10] before it was shifted to Mualpui as Assam Rifle could not give clearance for construction.[11] The Chief Minister of Mizoram, Lal Thanhawla officially inaugurated the artificial turf (grass) laid at Aizawl Lammual, also known as the Assam Rifles (AR) Ground in Aizawl city on Monday, 28 February 2011.[12]
