===General election 1991===
The election was a direct contest between sitting MP [[Shikiho Sema]] from the INC and [[Imchalemba]] of the NPC. This was the first election that the BJP fielded a candidate for the Nagaland seat, Pius Lotha, who had to repeatedly reiterate that the BJP was not a communal party. The ban on the [[National Socialist Council of Nagaland]] by the [[Vishwanath Pratap Singh]] government was the main issue during the election campaigning with the INC and NPC blaming each other for the ban.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Munshi|first=Debashish|date=2 May 1991|title=Parties focus on NSCN ban|page=12|work=[[The Times of India]]}}</ref>

===General election 1996===
On 28 July 1992, Imchalemba had joined the Congress.<ref>{{Cite news|last=PTI|date=30 July 1992|title=Nagaland MP's 'betrayal' flayed|page=7|work=[[The Times of India]]}}</ref> He fought the 1996 elections on the Congress' ticket. The continued presence of the security forces in Nagaland was an important electoral issue. The [[Naga Students' Federation]] demanded a boycott of the elections until the "disturbed area" tagged under the [[Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act]] was revoked. Congress now had their government in the Centre as well as the state. Imchalemba's opponent, [[H. Khekiho Zhimomi]] stated "we certainly don't deserve these black laws in the state and we have the experience of the '50s and '60s which have made this crystal clear. As long as we have these laws operational in the state, violence and tension will continue during elections."<ref>{{Cite news|last=Sehgal Saikia|first=Sabina|date=19 April 1996|title=Issue on army's presence will dominate Naga polls|page=9|work=[[The Times of India]]}}</ref> Imchalemba won the election comfortably and represented the state in the [[11th Lok Sabha]].
