LUCKNOW, OCT. 13. Three persons were killed in poll-related violence in Uttar Pradesh today. Two persons, including a BSP supporter, were killed when supporters of rival candidates opened fire in the Mainpuri Lok Sabha constituency this morning following an altercation near a polling station, a Home Department spokesman told presspersons here. In the Atrauli Assembly constituency in Aligarh district, polling had to be suspended in the Narupura polling station following tension over the killing of a person in firing between two groups over poll preparations, he said. Repolling would be held in the polling station on October 15.
