so congress states. let the results come and public will decide whether opinion polls are manipulated by vested interests. Once poll schedule starts exit polls are banned. Congress is only for restrictions on the common man, how wonderful. an enlightened middle class is going to vote enmasse they are not carried away by polls or freebies. if any party can manipulate public oinion then it is sonia cacus only. to day cancel opinion polls, tomorrow ban discussions on polls on TV. what a way to fight an election!

It is obvious that Congress is running scared. It was Congress's Leader Indira Gandhi who had imposed the EMERGENCY and curbed Freedom of Speech and locked up opposition leaders in Jail. Has Congress forgotten it? Congress is a Fascist Party dominated by a Dynasty masquerading as a Democratic Party. Remember the way the Crown Prince rubbished the Ordinance and the PM had to shamelessly withdraw it without questioning?
The Congress wants EC to cover Ponds with Lotus flowers. Rightly the EC has rejected this idiotic suggestion. Now Congress is questioning the Opinion Polls by TV channels which till now have been daily criticizing Modi. So Congress can't question their loyalty. The truth is that people are fed up with this corrupt party and want to send it packing.
By all and sundry journos/ anchors etc etc. targeting it. It must also ask for ban on uncontrolled remarks by unofficial spokespersons of INC and other parties questioning secular credentials of BJP while they do vote caste and religion based vote bank politics. Or calling Modi a Hitler to create fear psychosis among minorities a la persecution of Jews. Infact dirty tricks deptt of INC should be wound up.
