Hina Bhat Candidate for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) only woman candidate in the Kashmir Valley Srinagar's Amira Kadal constituency, slapped a polling officer during the fourth phase of assembly elections in the state today, a police officer has told the media here today. The incident took place at a booth in Chan Pora on the outskirts of Srinagar. On the other side Ms Hina Bhat Candidate from Vidhan Sabha Amirakadal, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has denied this. "I stopped polling because the polling officer, in the guise of showing a voter how to operate an EVM (Electronic Voting Machine) was casting a vote on her behalf". Alleging blatant foul play on part of polling officers, Ms Bhat said she has surveyed all polling stations all morning this day. At Nati Pora a polling officer ordered that the voting be stopped after an argument with Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers, she said. The matter was resolved only after the local magistrate stepped in at her request. Hina Bhat BJP candidate in the Kashmir Valley Srinagar's Amira Kadal constituency denies Slapping Poll Official.
