Director General of the ECI Ashish Srivastava, accompanied by Mizoram's Chief Electoral Officer Ashwini Kumar and other state officials last week visited the refugee camps in Northern Tripura to finalise the voting of the refugees.
Of the 37,625 Reang tribal refugees, locally known as 'Bru', living in the refugee camps in Kanchanpur and Panisagar in North Tripura since 1997, only 11,311 were listed in Mizoram's electoral rolls.
The refugee leaders complained to Srivastava that there were many eligible voters in the camps who were not included in the voters' lists of Mizoram.
