Builum is a village in Bilkhawthlir Block of Kolasib district of Mizoram state of India.[1] The village was established in the year 1941, but had to be moved as the construction of Serlui B dam on the Serlui river between 2003 and 2009 submerged the original village.[2] The compensations due to the villagers due to the construction of the Serlui B dam are still ongoing.[3][4]
