New Delhi CPI has demanded re-polling in 16 polling stations in the Inner Manipur Parliamentary constituency for"irregularities" allegedly committed at the behest of Congress.

In a memorandum to the Election Commission, CPI candidate from the seat, M Nara, alleged that workers of Congress have committed"mass scale rigging and proxy voting" in 16 polling stations where percentage of turn out was above 90 per cent.

"In one polling station, 100 per cent female and 96 per cent male voters exercised their franchise though the turn out of electors was very small," Nara claimed.

also claimed that the 16 polling stations had been categorised as hyper-sensitive but the same was changed to normal by the government just a day before the polling to"facilitate large scale rigging".

" Evidence is that the entire mass rigging was planned by the Congress workers in connivance with the presiding officers," Nara claimed in the memorandum.

Another regional party from the state, MPP, has also demanded repoll in the 16 stations spread across Andro and Thoubal assembly segments.
