This is almost certainly more than one person
The dataset carries no candidate identifier, so every ballot line reading “DIWAN CHAND” is grouped by name alone. This record shows contests in 4 different states/UTs, stood in two different states in the same year, a 56-year span across 11 contests, 6 different parties — patterns a single career can’t produce. Read each block below as its own thread, and treat the totals as counts for the name, not for a person.
