Chief Election Commissioner O P Rawat along with two other members of the EC will visit Nagaland and Meghalaya from tomorrow ahead of the February 27 polls in the two northeastern states. Rawat along with the two commissioners would first visit Nagaland and then Meghalaya over the next three days, officials in the Election Commission (EC) said. They would be interacting with officials of the state governments, those attached to the poll panel for holding elections, representatives of political parties and top officials involved with law and order. In Nagaland, most candidates representing political parties had filed nominations on the last day on February 7 amid calls for boycotting the elections.
