Mysuru: During the 1990 Maharashtra State Assembly elections, Congress candidate Anees Ahmed lost to Janata Dal candidate Yashwant Bajirao by just six votes from the then Nagpur Central constituency. Political experts then said Ahmed was unfortunate as he and his family members could not vote for him because they stayed in Chhaoni that was part of Nagpur West constituency.
The above example is just to illustrate that every vote matters for a candidate and that too, when the victory margin is wafer-thin.
