Quit Notice to CEO
On the eve of the election, Quit notice was given to Chief Electoral Officer SB Sashank because of two issues, one involving the deployment of central forces around Reang tribals living in Tripura Camps who are voters for Elections in Mizoram. While the State government wanted them to travel to Mizoram, groups representing Reang tribals wanted them to vote from Tripura camps.[7] Secondly the CEO Shashank alleged interference by Principal Secretary (Home) Lalnunmawia Chuaungo in preparations for the polls scheduled on 28 November. He wrote to the EC in the last week of October, mentioning an active role played by the state Home Department in this interference.[8] The Election Commission of India issued orders to the state government to remove Chuaungo with immediate effect. Over 40,000 people mobilized by a co-ordination committee headed by the Young Mizo Association compromising Mizo Upa Pawl (Mizo senior citizens association), Mizo Hmeichhe Insuihkhawm Pawl (Mizo women organisation) and two student bodies[9] took to the streets in Aizawl demanding removal of SB Sashank and reinstatement of Lalnunmawia Chaungo. Eventually the Election Commission recalled SB Sashank[10] and appointed Mr Ashish Kundra as the New Chief Electoral Officer.[11]
