Mizoram Assembly election results highlights: In a significant electoral verdict, the Zoram People's Movement (ZPM) cruised to victory in Mizoram, ending the Mizo National Front's (MNF) grip on the northeastern state.
The ZPM won 27 seats out of 40, with the MNF at 10. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) bagged two seats while the Congress had to contend with a solitary seat. A party or coalition needs to secure at least 21 seats to form the government in Mizoram.
Deputy CM Tawnluia lost to ZPM candidate W Chhuanawma in the Tuichang seat by a margin of 909 votes. Rural Development Minister Lalruatkima lost to ZPM's Lalnghinglova Hmar in Aizawl West-II seat by 4,819 votes.
Health Minister R Lalthangliana lost to ZPM nominee Jeje Lalpekhlua in South Tuipui seat by 135 votes.
The ZPM's CM candidate Lalduhoma won the Serchhip seat, defeating MNF's J Malsawmzuala Vanchhawng by 2,982 votes.
Mizoram Chief Minister Zoramthanga on Sunday exuded confidence that the MNF will return to power by crossing the magic number of 21 in the 40-member assembly and said he will prioritise resource mobilisation to improve the financial condition of the northeastern state, if the party forms the government. Zoramthanga's key opponent, Zoram People's Movement (ZPM) chief Lalduhoma also claimed that his party is confident of winning an absolute majority in the assembly. The counting of votes for the November 7 assembly poll in the state will be held on Monday.
