Nandigram/UNI: A BJP worker’s body was found at his Nandigram residence, even as the overall polling remained peaceful, at Nandigram, a high profile assembly constituency in East Medinipur, where the Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is pitted against her former aid turned BJP rival Suvendu Adhikari.

The latest report said, about 16 percent of voters casted their franchise in the first two hours, at 30 assembly seats, where polling is underway in four districts.

The report shared that South 24 Parganas had the lowest 9 percent voting, East Medinipur and West Medinipur had 17 percent, and Bankura reported 16 percent up till 9 am since polling began at 7 am.

Mystery shrouded with the discovery of the BJP worker body, identified as Uday Shankar Dubey, at his East Vekutia residence under Nandigram Block 1 this morning.

He is suspected to have hung himself, a primary investigation report revealed; however, the discovery of his body in a hanging position created panic among the family members and in the locality.
