Shocker: Money Deals of Pre-Poll Survey Agencies exposed!
X
The India Today Group has suspended all opinion polls carried out by poll agency CVoter. The suspension came after the Television channel 'News Express' exposed in its sting operation that the agency has altered facts for the sake of money. 'News Express' claimed it has exposed 11 agencies including CVoter in the sting operation conducted by it.

Puneet Jain who is head of legal department of India Today Group issued a statement: "We are examining the allegations levelled in the sting operation very seriously. In the interim, we are suspending all opinion polls being carried out by CVoter for the India Today Group. A show-cause notice is also being sent to CVoter seeking a response on the charges levelled by the news channel".

Only few days ago, CVoter-India Today opinion poll declared YSR Congress will emerge as a winner in Seemandhra by bagging 18 out of 25 seats. Even it has given thumbs up to TRS in Telangana region.

TDP supremo Chandrababu Naidu alleges: "YSRC,TRS bought survey agencies to alter results as shown in TV sting operation. TDP has been saying this since sweeping Panchayats in 2013."
