The state government wanted the [[Reang]] people living in camps in the neighboring state of [[Tripura]], who are registered voters for the [[elections in Mizoram]], to travel to Mizoram, the CEO sided with the groups representing the Reang people, who wanted to vote from Tripura.<ref>{{cite web |title=Explained: Why Mizoram wants CEO out |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/why-mizoram-wants-chief-electoral-officer-out-election-commission-5443395/ |work=[[The Indian Express]] |access-date=4 January 2019}}</ref> The CEO alleged interference by the principal secretary Lalnunmawia Chuaungo and wrote to the [[Election Commission of India|election commission]] in the last week of October, alleging interference from the state government in the conduct of the elections. Subsequently, the election commission issued orders to the state government to remove Chuaungo with immediate effect.<ref>{{cite web |title=People start picketing before Mizoram CEO's office demanding his removal |url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/elections/mizoram-assembly-elections/people-start-picketing-before-mizoram-ceos-office-demanding-his-removal/articleshow/66521427.cms |work=[[The Economic Times]] |access-date=4 January 2019}}</ref> People led by [[Young Mizo Association]] and consisting of [[Mizo Hmeichhe Insuihkhawm Pawl]] and other student bodies, took to the streets in [[Aizawl]] demanding removal of CEO Sashank and reinstatement of Chaungo.<ref>{{cite news |title=Mizoram NGOs and students bodies serve ‘Quit Mizoram’ notice to CEO |url=http://www.northeastindia24.com/mizoram-ngos-and-students-bodies-serve-quit-mizoram-notice-to-ceo/ |work=North East India 24 |access-date=4 January 2019}}</ref> Eventually the election commission recalled Sashank and appointed Ashish Kundra as the new CEO.<ref>{{cite news |title=SB Shashank On Way Out as Mizoram Election Officer, EC Asks Chief Secy to Suggest Replacement |url=https://www.news18.com/news/politics/sb-shashank-on-his-way-out-as-mizoram-chief-electoral-officer-as-ec-asks-chief-secretary-to-suggest-replacement-1935005.html |access-date=4 January 2019 |work=[[News18]]}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Ashish Kundra named new Mizoram chief electoral officer |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/ashish-kundra-named-new-mizoram-chief-electoral-officer/articleshow/66633229.cms |work=[[The Times of India]] |access-date=4 January 2019}}</ref>
