Alumse Sangtam, Seyochung Village Council Secretary, said that starting from the village head ‘gaon bura’ to the elders and the voters, the village council have been monitoring with strict compliance to adhere to clean elections in the village. He said that the village council will be guiding the villagers to cast their votes peacefully.
