Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) seemed to come back in Manipur with an estimate of about 41% vote share, while Congress is predicted to stay far with 30%.
Talking of the ticket to contest the polls from various constituencies, the Bharatiya Janata Party is likely to contest on all 60 seats and has fielded candidates for all the Assembly seats in Manipur.
The present CM N Biren Singh would contest from Heingang constituency in the upcoming Manipur Assembly elections and the party hopes to form a government with more than 2/3rd majority.
However, the Manipur Congress would contest with 40 candidates, the National People’s Party with 20 candidates and the Naga People’s Front from 10 seats.
