While he was talking to polling personnel inside the booth, some of the voters and BJP opposed Nayak’s entry into the polling booth and raised slogans against him. It led to an altercation between Nayak’s supporters and the locals.
Before the situation could further escalate, the police deployed there took Nayak out of booth. Additional police force was also deployed to prevent untoward incident during the polling.
Nayak claimed that some people having affiliation to a rival party tried to create disturbance when he visited the polling booth. “Some people tried to oppose me and create disturbance at the booth. I left the place to avoid any untoward incident and informed the SP,” he said.
