Bhopal: One person was reported killed after wall of a polling booth collapsed in Madhya Pradeshs Satna district as the voting for the first phase of three-tire panchayat elections began on Saturday.
Deceased has been identified as Raja Kushwaha. He was sitting at polling booth in Tikha village in Satna district when a wall collapsed. He was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was declared brought dead, police said.
While the voting for the first phase was underway, some scuffle broke out at a polling booth in Gwalior-Chambal division. In another incident in Damoh district, a Sub-Inspector (SI) was injured after two groups clashed at a polling station.
As per reports, incident occurred after SI Inderjeet Choudhary, who was on duty at polling booth, pushed a voter out which made the villagers angry. Subsequently, locals created a ruckus at the polling centre. Additional forces were called in, situation was brought under control and voting continued peacefully, police said.
