I know you will not take much time to answer, if I ask you to guess the winner in the election survey released by Prashant Kishor.
PK is a close associate of YSRCP Chief Jagan Mohan Reddy and had assisted the party in several ways like selection of candidates, manifesto preparation etc. Now, he is also extending his support to the party by allegedly posting some fake and biased survey.
According to his survey, out of 175 assembly constituencies, YSRCP wins in 125-140 seats in addition to 20 out of 25 MP seats. On the other side, he just gave 25-30 assembly and 5 MP seats to TDP and restricted Janasena to 5-10 assembly seats and zero MP seats. He stated neither Congress nor BJP is going to win a single Assembly or MP seat in AP.
Not stopping there, Prashant Kishor also made some comments, which are now being treated as a laughing stock. The self-acclaimed popular surveyor said that Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu manages to win in his own constituency Kuppam, out of great difficulty and also the situation is same with Pawan Kalyan in Gajuwaka. He also said that the Janasena Chief is going to lose in Bheemavaram. Nara Lokesh is going to face a defeat in Mangalagiri, PK stated, adding that many other shocks can be expected after the elections results on May 23rd.
Most of the TDP backed media, made Naidu as the winner and offered at least 50 seats to YSRCP. But shockingly the merciless PK just offered 25-30 seats to the TDP. Guess, what would be the result if even Praja Shanthi Party Chief KA Paul owns a TV channel or comes up with a survey like this?
Lagadapati Rajagopal’s survey was once treated as a trustworthy. But his recent survey during Telangana Assembly elections was identified as a compromising one, after the results and remained as a laughing stock. Since then, the people lost confidence on the surveys released by people or the media backing a political party. Any attempts of such sort in the future would no more be appreciated.
