Mizoram Assembly Elections 2023 Results Live: Chief Minister Zoramthanga of Mizo National Front (MNF), an ally in the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance, is confident his party will return to power

Mizoram Constituency Wise Winner Loser Candidates: In Mizoram, the serving Chief Minister Zoramthanga of Mizo National Front (MNF), an ally in the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance, is confident his party will return to power.  Zoramthanga has said that the MNF will bag 25-35 seats in the elections for the 40-member Assembly. However the Congress party has expressed optimism of replacing the MNF in the state.  The counting day was originally scheduled for December 3, but the Election Commission postponed to the next citing the receipt of "several representations from various quarters" within Mizoram as the key reason behind this decision. The representations collectively requested a revision of the counting date from December 3, 2023 (Sunday), to another weekday. Chief Electoral Officer Madhup Vyas said that the poll body agreed to the request as "Sunday was devoted to church duties and prayers."
