M.M.LakheraAizawl, Nov 4 : Mizoram Governor Lt. General M M Lakhera on Wednesday could not vote in the 19-ward Aizawl Municipal Council as his name was not on the voters list.

When Lakhera did not find his name he returned to Raj Bhavan without casting his vote, officials said.

There was 60 per cent turnout in the election which was held peacefully, the sources said.

The voters sealed the fate of 45 candidates which included nominees from the ruling Congress and the Zoram Nationalust Party (ZNP) alliance and the opposition Mizo National Front (MNF) and the Mizoram People's Conference (MPC) combine.

The BJP and the NCP fielded four and one candidates respectively while two independent candidates also tried their luck in the polls.
