About Poll Survey :
** The Election Commission has observed that during the run up to any general elections to the House of the People or State Legislative Assemblies, Opinion Polls are often conducted by different organisations.
** The results of such opinion polls are published in newspapers, magazines and other periodicals, and sometimes telecast/broadcast on the electronic media.
** The dissemination of such results of Opinion Polls receives wide publicity and coverage in the print and electronic media and such dissemination, particularly on the eve of polls, has the potential to influence the electors when they are in the mental process of making up of their minds to vote or not to vote for a certain political party or a candidate.
** The methodology followed by different organisations conducting such opinion polls varies from organisation to organisation, or the agencies, conducting such polls.
** Similarly, the sample size of the electorate covered by such polls and geographic spread of the survey also differs substantially in each case.
** Apart from the Opinion Polls, Exit Polls are also conducted by some organisations on the days of polls.
** Considering the magnitude of the electorate in the country, particularly at the time of countrywide general elections to the House of the People, and the complexity of operations involved in the conduct of such general elections, the poll is taken in a phased manner, spread over a period of two to three weeks.
** Publication of result of any Exit Poll, in the intervening period when the poll in any of the States or Union Territories or constituencies is yet to be taken, is likely to affect the unbiased exercise of franchise by the elector, one way or the other.
