Was There Serious Mischief Behind the 2024 Andhra Pradesh Polls?

Was there serious mischief behind the 2024 Andhra Pradesh polls?: Parakala Prabhakar, Economist, Public Commentator and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's husband tells Karan Thapar he believes the answer is yes. ......................................... Relying entirely on official data made available by the Election Commission of India and the Andhra Pradesh Chief Election Officer i.e. entirely official data, the well-known economist and current affairs commentator Parakala Prabhakar has revealed there is reason to believe serious mischief took place in the Andhra Pradesh polls of 2024, both at the Assembly and the Lok Sabha level. He points out that between 11.45 at night and 2 in the morning on 13th/14th May 2024 just over 17 lakh people cast their vote in 3,500 booths. This means that on an average 491 people would have voted in each of the 3,500 booths in just 135 minutes. That comes to 3.6 voters per minute or roughly 20 seconds per voter. If you deduct from this the time taken by VVPAT machines to reveal a vote (and remember there were two VVPATs because this was both an Assembly and Lok Sabha election) you come to the amazing conclusion that each voter got just 6 seconds to vote. I will stop there. This is an interview you should see for yourself. Dr. Parakala explains in detail his findings, which he has raised with the Election Commission 20 days ago but got no response whatsoever. Although his findings were published by The Wire on the 14th of February they have not been picked up by any national newspaper or television channel. It seems there’s a conspiracy of silence.
