Length, date and QPQ done. But the hook doesn't seem to be supported by the article. The article says "He was one of the first elected Lok Sabha members of Arunachal Pradesh" and "Pertin contested the election as an independent candidate for the Arunachal East constituency.[8] He won the seat, obtaining 28,557 votes (56.34% of the votes in the constituency)"?

You're missing the first sentence of the 1977 election passage; "The 1977 general election was the first time the newly created Union Territory of Arunachal Pradesh was able to elect two members of the Lok Sabha (lower house of the Indian parliament)." --Soman (talk) 04:47, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
