At least eleven persons including eight police personnel were injured in a poll related clash at Chakrapal on Friday when a mob ransacked vehicles of the assistant election officer and the block development officer. The police intervened and faced the ire of the mob who indulged in heavy brick batting.
A sub-inspector, two assistant sub-inspectors and a constable and four OSAP sustained injuries while three others were also hurt. The polls were for a ward in the area. Trouble sparked when the BDO S K Bala wanted to take the ballot box from the Chakrapal Primary School to his office for counting.
A section of the voters opposed it and insisted that the counting take place at the school itself. The voters detained the election officer and his assistant. The two officials called the police and a clash ensued. Inspector-In- Charge Ratikanta Giri said his officers had rushed to spot and by escort the booth box brought to block office. No case was registered till file the report.
