MARU

IND·SWA

This is almost certainly more than one person

The dataset carries no candidate identifier, so every ballot line reading “MARU” is grouped by name alone. This record shows contests in 2 different states/UTs — 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.

Grouped by state and by Lok Sabha — spelling variants are merged, and, without a candidate id, so are different people who share this name.
