Through ‘purposive sampling’ data are collected with the distribution of questionnaires. Data analyses are done through SPSS programme and the research result is presented in term of a statistical descriptive pattern which is frequency distribution, percentage and mean score. The finding of this research indicates that the respondents are not much satisfied with the services that provided by MIC in before and after 12th General Election.
