Youtuber Dhruv Rathee calls exit poll fraud questions whether done to ‘manipulate the stock market?’
New Delhi: The exit polls trends which indicated a significant margin win for the ruling BJP- led National Democratic Alliance are being proven wrong after initial trends were in contrast to the post-poll surveys.
While most exit polls forecasted 350-400 for the National Democratic Alliance, and less than 200 for INDIA, the result trends as of 12:00 PM on Tuesday indicate the NDA leading in only 293 seats, while the Congress is trailing with 228 seats.
In the meantime, popular Youtuber Dhruv Rathee in an ‘X’ post on Tuesday called the exit polls fraud and demanded an investigation into the fraud.
He further questioned whether, “Did they all do this to manipulate the stock market? Or were they threatened by someone to do it?.”
This comes after the the Indian stock markets experienced blood bath after early trends indicated lower-than-expected seat count for NDA. The Sensex plummeted over 4,000 points which is the largest intraday fall in the past two years. While, the NIFTY also witnessed the worst single-day fall on Tuesday.
The Exit Poll Fraud must be investigated
