I learnt that food cooked in microwave is less healthy/unhealthy. Same way is it that onion, tomato, garlic pastes made by electric mixer grinder are unhealthy compared to manually made paste by a chopper or manual grinder. Please advise

No, you are wrong. Electric appliances just helping us in mixing, cutting etc, saving our efforts/hard work. You can consult online consultation for online Ayurveda treatment services if you have any health issue.

There is a difference. Microwave generates waves to heat the food, which is not uniformly distributed and leads to over heating and under heating of portions of food. Mixers don't generate waves. So no such issues. But packed pastes and chutney have lot of preservatives and salt/sugar added, should be avoided.
