In diarrhea gut motility is increased. Whatever is ingested , comes out quicker. Polio drops contain attenuated polio virus. Once given,  a large proportion  of this viral dose   stays in intestine and poriliferates to show it's effect. If given during diarrhea ,most of it will be thrown out resulting in to lesser efficacy. For this very reason we wait till diarrhea is over.

Because they both are different diseases if in the times of diarrhoea we give the child polio drops then the immunity will focus on polio and the health gets worsen bcoz of diarrhoea.
