Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla’s government, in power for two terms
since 2008, is confident of a third term, the principal opposition, Mizo
National Front (MNF), believes there is a wind of change.
“There is an anti-incumbency feeling. A primary reason is the lack of
development in almost every field — roads are in pathetic condition,
and there has been no progress in the field of agriculture or
horticulture,” said Zoramthanga, the former chief minister and president
of MNF.
While the main contest is between the Congress and MNF, the BJP is hopeful of its chances.
