Chakma Autonomous District council Election 2025: BJP sweeps village councils

March 13, 2025: In a landslide victory, the Bharatiya Janata Party has emerged as the clear winner in the Village Council General Election 2025 of the Chakma Autonomous District Council (CADC) in Mizoram.



Key Statistics:



:: Total village councils: 88



:: Total seats: 516



:: Village Councils won by BJP: 64



:: Seats won by BJP: 364



The BJP’s impressive performance has left other parties trailing behind. The Mizo National Front (MNF) managed to win only 8 village councils and 46 seats, while the Zoram People’s Movement (ZPM) secured 12 village councils and 83 seats. Independent candidates won 2 village councils and 21 seats, and the Indian National Congress (INC) drew a blank, failing to win any seats.



In two village councils, the results were tied. The BJP’s sweeping victory in the CADC elections is a significant milestone in the party’s efforts to expand its presence in the Northeast region.



Amit Malviya, national convener of the IT cell of the Bharatiya Janata Party , said that north east is now almost “Congress-Mukt”, indicating a significant shift in the region’s political landscape. The BJP’s victory in the CADC elections is a testament to the party’s growing influence in the region.
