State election department officials said that 16 polling parties in South Mizoram's Lunglei district left Lunglei town yesterday as their respective places of duty were inaccessible by vehicles and the officials had to trek.
The officials said that 51 polling parties in the southern-most district of Saiha left for duty today while 90 teams from neighbouring Lawngtlai district also left for duty during the day.
In the rest of the six districts, the bandh called by the NGO Coordination Committee was strictly enforced and not a single polling party left for their place of duty.
The bandh was called in protest against the Election Commission's decision to allow 11,000 Bru voters to vote in the six Tripura relief camps through postal ballots.
