The Election Commission of India (ECI) has identified 32 polling stations in Mizoram as 'critical' and 38 'vulnerable locations', the state's Joint Chief Electoral Officer Zorammuana said Sunday.
The state will have a total of 1,164 polling stations for the November 28 Assembly polls.
Along with the state armed police, 40 companies of Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) would also be deployed in critical polling stations and also in those at vulnerable locations, Zorammuana told PTI.
While the training for poll officials is on, the state election machinery is preparing to conduct free, fair and peaceful polls as was done in the past.
Meanwhile, poll campaign in the state is in full swing with candidates including Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla, former chief minister and opposition MNF president Zoramthanga campaigning not only in their respective constituencies but also in other parts of the state.
Public meetings, joint platforms and door-to-door canvassing were being held in almost all the places.
