AMC polls: BJP – Congress workers clash in Kubernagar ward

Ahmedabad: A physical altercation occurred during the polling process in the Kubernagar ward of Ahmedabad today between workers of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Indian National Congress.

The incident took place at the V.V. Tomar School polling station. According to reports, the conflict began when the Congress candidate, Nikulsinh Tomar, arrived at the scene and accused BJP candidates, including Girivarsinh Shekhawat and others, of facilitating bogus voting. The verbal spat quickly escalated into a physical fight, with video footage of the incident going viral on social media.

The violence resulted in at least one injury. Suresh Yadav, the cousin of BJP candidate Umesh Yadav, was reportedly injured during the brawl. DCP Atul Bansal (Zone 4) reached the site to take stock of the situation, and police have initiated the process of filing a formal complaint on behalf of the injured BJP worker. Security has since been heavily fortified at the school to prevent further unrest, and all workers were forcibly removed from the booth premises by the police to restore order.

In another incident, in Vadodara, BJP and Congress workers faced off outside Little Flower School in Manjalpur over the placement of political banners, creating a tense atmosphere until police intervened. DeshGujarat
