Previously, the psephologist had made claims regarding the number of voters in two assembly segments in Maharashtra polls compared to the 2024 general elections.
Kumar’s post had claimed a significant dip in voter numbers in two assembly seats compared to the 2024 general elections, which were held nearly six months apart. He later deleted it on Tuesday and in another post, apologised for posting “erroneous data” on the microblogging platform.
Sanjay Kumar had later apologised over a post concerning data of Maharashtra elections.
“I sincerely apologise for the tweets posted regarding Maharashtra elections. Error occurred while comparing data of 2024 LS and 2024 AS (assembly segments). The data in row was misread by our Data team. The tweet has since been removed. I had no intention of dispersing any form of misinformation,” he said in a post on X.
