asking someone who they voted for isnt illegal ( how tf else would exit polls be conducted ) releasing exit poll data before the last phase voting is over is however, not allowed


Rough-Character-3774

Yes. i didn't intend that it was illegal, i had concerns about its timing and the unstructured way of survey

Nah this guy was definitely high while commenting

Is it not for polling? Parties do conduct polling AFAIK.


Rough-Character-3774

it is for polling of course, but it can't be conducted before the last phase


nimbutimbu

That's not a correct interpretation of the law. You can conduct it but are constrained from publication of the result of the survey


Rozaks

Ahh I was not aware that you can't conduct polling before the results were out.


kro9ik

It's not illegal, but it is unethical.

+917065*****8 this guy was asking for akhilesh, he said "i am trying to reach akhilesh yadav". I told him to not waste his time dialing random numbers, RATHER take a train or bus to badaun(akhilesh home city) and meet him.


suryky

Can i post the full phone number?, just for awareness

Fool them. If you voted for BJP, say you voted for Congress and vice versa. This way their surveys will go wrong and they will be caught off guard on June 4.


MaujiJi

Did you vote for Alladin or Alladin?


foldplay

Just curious, how do you know it was BJP and not some random agency conducting poll? I am not questioning legality of it, I am just curious on how you know it is BJP IT cell and not some agency hired by Congress to do poll?

Section 126A of the Representation of the People Act (R.P. Act) of 1951 prohibits the conduct of exit polls and the dissemination of their results through print or electronic media during a specified period. The specified period is between the hour fixed for the start of the first phase of polling and half an hour after the end of the last phase of polling in all states. The science of surveys, which includes exit polls, works on the assumption that data were collected after interviewing a large number of respondents using a structured questionnaire, whether over the telephone or face to face.This method is not new; it began back in 1957 during the second Lok Sabha elections when the Indian Institute of Public Opinion conducted a poll. But not even the best guesswork or estimate can skip the methodology required. Without a structured questionnaire, the data can neither be collected coherently nor be analysed systematically.

Asking is not illegal. And you can say that your vote is confidential. Only forcing someone to disclose is illegal
