Actor Swara Bhasker, reacting to her husband Fahad Ahmad’s defeat in the Maharashtra assembly elections, accused EVM manipulation, questioning the machines’ battery levels. Fahad, an NCP (SP) candidate from Anushakti Nagar, lost to Sana Malik, daughter of Nawab Malik, backed by NCP (Ajit Pawar).As the counting process neared its conclusion, Fahad Ahmed, a candidate from the Sharad Pawar-led NCP faction, was trailing by more than 3,000 votes behind Sana Malik, a nominee from Ajit Pawar’s NCP.In a post on X, Bhasker alleged, “In #AnushaktiNagar Vidhan Sabha, after a steady lead by @FahadZirarAhmad of NCP-SP, round 17, 18, 19 suddenly 99% battery charger EVMs are opened, and BJP-supported NCP-Ajit Pawar candidate takes the lead. How can machines that have been voted on all day long have 99% charged batteries? Why do all 99% charged batteries give votes to BJP and its allies?”
