The last 4 elections to be held in Central Ward were:
in 2003 (when it was all postal)
in 2004 (when it was also all postal)
in 2007 -when the candidates were Mohammad Ayub (The Labour Party) and Mohammed Kazi Siddique (Conservative )
in 2008 - Tariq Ali (The Labour Party)Allah Dad (Conservative) and Ifty Khan (Liberal Democrat).
As the candidate's names appear in alphabetical order of surname on the ballot paper, at both the 2007 and 2008 elections it was the Conservative Candidate who was in the 2nd box on the ballot paper at both these elections. So if, as you are suggesting Mani, there were ladies shouting to put a cross against the 2nd box, then they were trying to get voters to vote for the Conservative candidate.
