Chief Election Commissioner V S Sampath today said Election Commission would follow Supreme Court's judgement on disqualification of convicted MPs and MLAs in the coming Assembly elections in five states.

"As of today, Supreme Court's order is the law of land and we will implement its order," Sampath told reporters here when asked whether convicted lawmakers would be allowed to contest election in Chhattisgarh.

A full team of the Election Commission was on a two-day visit of Chhattisgarh from Thursday for an on-the-spot assessment of poll preparedness in the Maoist-hit state.

The Commission held meetings with representatives of various political parties and senior government officials, besides poll officials of the state.
