Lucknow:
Akhilesh Yadav today said surveys favouring the BJP in Uttar Pradesh ahead of elections next month were “opium polls, not opinion polls”. He also called UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath the “biggest liar”.
“These are not opinion polls. These are opium polls. We don’t know in what drugged state they are showing such figures and data,” Akhilesh Yadav told NDTV in an exclusive interview, defending his demand for a ban on the opinion polls shown on some TV channels in the run-up to the UP polls next month.
The Samajwadi Party chief asserted that the polls favoured the BJP without producing any facts or substantiation.
