Voters should be allowed to exercise their free will in the polls and political parties should refrain from intimidation, cheating and distribution of money by armed groups, the Mizoram Kohhran Hruaitute Committee said in a statement here.

“We want the new government to work without fear or favour and also not to show special favour to any single church or organisation,” it said.
