It uses rotating magnets arranged in a ring to generate energy by harnessing electrostatic charges from the atmosphere. This was developed in the 1940s.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, this invention was <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Hm_cSmvmIXs?si=XuM5o4cAoggPD1OG&amp;t=316\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">critiqued<\/a> for its use of &#8216;fraudulent science&#8217;. Many allege that the SEG&#8217;s magnetic phenomenon has not been constructively demonstrated or tested.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, claims that India invented a magnetic generator under the Modi government are baseless and fabricated. No credible media outlets have reported this.
