Mizoram Election Results 2018 Complete Winners List, Party And Constituency Wise Results: MNF Bags 26 Seats, Independents 8 And Congress Wins 4

Mizoram Assembly Election 2018: MNF comes back to power after a decade.

Aizawl: The Mizo National Front returned to power in Mizoram after 10 years on Tuesday, capturing 26 seats in the 40-member Assembly and inflicting a humiliating defeat on the Congress. The counting of the votes polled in the Mizoram Assembly Election 2018 began at 8 AM.

Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla suffered defeat from both the seats he contested, including his home turf Serchip. He also lost from Champai South constituency.

Further, Congress won four seats in the state, while the independents bagged eight seats.

The main parties in the fray for the Mizoram Assembly Election 2018 are the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the Congress party, National People’s Party (NPP), Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and Mizo National Front (MNF). It must be noted that the tenure of 40-member Assembly in Mizoram, the only Congress-ruled state in the northeast, expires on December 15.

Since 1987, two parties have ruled the state — the Congress and the Mizoram National Party (MNF). Incumbent Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla has said that he will not ally with any of the Opposition parties even if his party fails to secure a majority. He is running for a third straight term. The BJP is contesting 39 seats this time. MNF is going it alone in the Assembly elections. Though the BJP is not expected to win, it may play the kingmaker once the results are out.

Here is The Winners’ List:

Meanwhile, as per exit polls prediction, the Congress seems headed towards losing bitterly to Opposition MDF in the state. This would mean the grand old party losing the only state it had in N-E. For Mizoram, Zee News Maha Exit poll has predicted 18 seats for the MNF while the Congress’ tally would drop to 16 from 34 in 2013. According to Times Now-CNX, MNF will attain 18 seats while the Congress will win 16 seats. The exit polls by Republic-C-Voter showed the MNF getting between 16 and 20 seats. In the 40-seat Assembly, 21 seats would mean a clear majority.
