Looks like Xiaomi has a Security application that controls pretty much everything. See another question and answer here

Steps:

• go to settings > installed apps
• find the app > tap it
• go to permissions manager and enable permission you need

Or:

• go to Security app
• tap Permissions
• Choose Autostart or Permissions and enable whatever you need for your app
