A fight broke out over a ballot box at a public meeting in Coochbehar soon after Trinamool national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee left the venue.

Trinamool supporters were seen with torn ballot paper pieces and getting into a fight with each other. The incident happened during voting after Mr Banerjee left the meeting.

"Given the excitement of people for the new ballot system, the crowd hogged the stage in large numbers in an unorganised manner because of which the chaotic situation unfolded," a Trinamool source who was at the venue said.

A re-polling will be called at the same location tomorrow from 10 am to 5 pm.
