The AMC is due for election this year.
In December last year, the state government had appointed sitting municipal commissioner K. Laldingliana as the administrator to exercise all power and function vested on the municipal authorities as the corporation term ended on December 10, 2020.
K. Laldingliana will act as the administrator till the election is held.
There are 19 seats in AMC, of which 6 seats are reserved for women.
Meanwhile, state election commissioner Laima Chozah said the commission is yet to consult the state government regarding the elections to AMC.
He said elections could not be held earlier due to the spread of Covid19.
He added that the AMC polls would be held depending on the Covid19 scenario.
