Please exit polls TV news channels!


The elections are on the verge of getting over and as the end date draws close the TV news channels are back to what they do best.Speculating.
This time however the government had banned exit polls.However since yesterday the ban has been lifted and the guess work is back.To top it all there seems to be a Rs 5000 crore betting market flourishing thanks to the exit polls data published by these very news channels.

I do not really understand the need of a exit poll at this juncture of the elections when we are just 2 days away from the results.As we know votes counting is to begin and this time with the use of Electronic Voting Machines(EVM) has been the process even faster and simpler.So the need to speculate about who the forms the government is absolutely fruitless.

The so called new channels just to get the business going indulge in this irrelevant game of prediction.The question here is who benefits from these exit polls!The voting phases are over and counting due it is just the news channels benefiting from it in terms of generating more TRP's and advertising revenues.

At this point,rather than who gets to lead the govt. the new channels should analyse the imminent problems India is facing today and come up with solutions.They should try to figure out which govt. would help India regain its lost glory after the recent terrorist attacks and which govt. would actually help in bringing the fiscal deficit down along with all round economic development of the poor.


My advise to people would be to wait till the D-day and see by urself who would lead India for the next 5 years and leave the election punters to carry on with their games!
