According to sources in the influential Young Mizo Association, besides transferring CEO Shashank, the poll panel could also decide on not setting up of any  polling station in Reang refugee relief camps.

The Mizo groups have been insisting that Reangs or Brus if interested to cast votes in Mizoram polls on November 28 should come to the state and do so in designated camps.

The Mizoram government has reportedly suggested a panel of three IAS officers to be considered by the Election Commission for appointment as new CEO replacing Mr Shashank.
