Mizoram CM Zoramthanga calls on Governor, submits resignation after MNF loses elections
Mizoram Chief Minister Zoramthanga met Governor Hari Babu Kambhampati on Monday evening and resigned following the debacle of his party, the Mizo National Front, in the assembly elections, officials said.
The MNF has won nine seats and is leading in one, while the opposition Zoram People’s Movement (ZPM) secured a majority by bagging 27 seats in the 40-member House.
Zoramthanga himself also lost to ZPM’s Lalthansanga by 2,101 votes in the Aizawl East-1 seat, according to the Election Commission.
