Accusing RJD activists of indulging in large-scale booth capturing in some key Lok Sabha constituencies in Bihar, including Madhepura, Janata Dal (United) demanded repoll in about 300 polling stations where voters exercised their franchise on Wednesday.
"We urge the Election Commission to order repoll in 300 voting stations in Madhepura, Munger, Balia and Banka," JD(U) spokesman Shiv Kumar said.
In Madhepura, where RJD supremo Laloo Prasad Yadav is contesting against Union Minister Sharad Yadav, the JD(U) expressed concern over the manner in which polling was held in 150 booths where no central security forces were present.
"Polling was conducted with the help of only Bihar Police and state Home Guard personnel," Kumar said.
He said in Munger para-military forces were not sighted at about 170 booths while in Balia RJD supporters captured 91 polling stations in the absence of central security personnel.
In Banka, where Union Minister Digvijay Singh is the JD (U) candidate, bomb blasts disrupted polling at 18 booths, he said adding there were complaints of booth grabbing by RJD workers.
