Locals manhandled the polling officer Bipin Yadav over a dispute that arose in course of the voting and also smashed the ballot box, hence the voting had to be suspended, said the Election Officer Shambhunath Magar. Although the Election Officer and the assistant Election Officer tried to resume the voting by calling the political parties, an all-party meeting decided to put on hold the voting as the ballot box was broken and the ballot papers had been torn and scattered.
