Exit polls absolutely fake, be cautious: Kejriwal

New Delhi, Jun 2 (UNI) Aam Aadmi Party convener and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday called exit polls “absolutely fake”, alleging that NDA-led BJP manipulated them to favour their supporters in the stock market and to fabricate an environment of their victory.

Addressing party workers before surrendering himself to Tihar jail, he said, “Yesterday the exit polls came out, get it from me in writing that all the exit polls are totally fake. There are a total of 25 seats in Rajasthan, an exit pollster gave 33 out of 25 seats to BJP. So, the entire exit poll is absolutely false.”

“What was the need for them (BJP) to conduct a fake exit poll just three days before actual counting?” he questioned stating “This needs to be understood. Many people are saying various things. One thing is that they (BJP) have committed a scam of (electronic voting) machines.”

“So many theories are going around, but we have to be cautious,” he said while advising counting agents to be fully alert.

“Till the end, even if you are losing, do not get up and leave. Many times, what happens is that after 2-3 rounds of counting, when there is a feeling of defeat, then in despair, people get up and leave. Do not get up and leave,” he said.

He asked counting agents to wait till the end.

“Even if your candidate is losing, you still have to wait till the end and get the EVM slips matched with the VVPAT slips,” he said.

“If they have really committed EVM scam, then we can expose it. So, everyone has to wait till the end, even if your candidate is losing, you still have to wait till the end and get the EVM slips matched with the VVPAT slips,” he said.

“Exit polls shown so many seats in favor of NDA because their people have invested in the stock market. And tomorrow when the stock market opens, there will be such a bumper gain, that they will sell their shares and escape,” Kejriwal alleged.

“Another theory is that to put pressure on the bureaucracy for the next three days, an environment is being created to make officers do wrong things, that we are the ones coming to power,” he alleged.

Hitting out at BJP, Kejriwal alleged that “The theory going around is that if the exit polls had shown less seats yesterday, then it is possible that there would have been a rebellion in both RSS and BJP against these two (Narendra Modi and Amit Shah) yesterday itself, they would not have even waited till the fourth.”

“So many theories are going around, but we have to be cautious. My opinion is that their (BJP) government is not going to be formed on June four,” he claimed.

“Each one of us will have to fight. This election is not about any party or any leader, this election is to save this country. This election is to save democracy in this country,” Kejriwal added.
