According to Assistant Returning Officer of Diphu Parliamentary constituency, Mukul Kathar, barring some incidents of EVM snags in some polling stations, voting was largely peaceful. �All the defective EVMs were replaced at the earliest and the polling continued without any hitch. The weather was also fair and caused minimum difficulties to the polling personnel. We are yet to receive the final tally of the votes cast,� Kathar added.
