The JACAS, meanwhile, has extended their support to BJP candidate Engleng.
Congress' Engti has been accused of not raising the issue of a separate state in the Parliament or other appropriate platforms.
Meanwhile, militant group Karbi People's Liberation Tiger (KPLT) had called for an indefinite bandh from April 8 and has threatened to disrupt the polls if political parties do not make their stand on the autonomous state clear.
Sporadic incidents of violence by KPLT and attempt of land encroachment in Karbi Anglong along the Assam-Nagaland border are other issues that have figured prominently during campaign for this seat.
