Former world no.1 shooter Heena Sidhu took a dig at political parties who earlier raised the issue of the “electronic voting machine problem” amid the ongoing 2024 Lok Sabha vote counting.

Heena in a social media post on ‘X’ wrote, “What about the electronic voting machine problem? No one is gonna raise that issue this time??

Further, Heena satirically wrote, “This election shows that Indian Democracy is going Strong.”

The Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is currently leading on 290 seats out of 543 while INDIA bloc is dominating on 234 seats.

Heena Sidhu's career in brief:

As far as Heena Sidhu's career in shooting is concerned, she began way back in 2006 by taking part in junior and senior teams. The 34-year-old rose through the ranks rapidly, notably clinching the silver medal in the ISSF World Cup in Beijing, China.

The 2010 Asian Games in Guangzhou saw Heena win yet another silver in Women's 10m Pistol team competition and earned the same in the singles event. Although the veteran athlete was part of the shooting team in the 2012 Summer Olympics, the Indian team finished 12th in the qualification round.

The year 2013 saw Sidhu win the gold medal in the ISSF World Cup finals in Munich, Germany by beating world champion Serbia's Zorana Arunovic and Ukraine's Olena Kostevych by accumulating 203.8 points. The following year she was conferred with Arjuna Award.
