A video featuring veteran journalist Rajdeep Sadesai, senior scribe Rahul Kanwal, and the MD of Axis My India Ltd., Pradeep Gupta, went viral on social media. In the clip, the three of them were having a "candid" chat about the "shocking" numbers that emerged from the exit polls on Thursday. Unsurprisingly, the video was widely trolled and people took their own guesses.
In response, Rajdeep Sardesai took to Twitter to clear the air. He rubbished all sorts of claims and guesses made about the clip, and stated it was actually a promo for the exit poll. Rajdeep wrote, "The level of idiocy is staggering! A video put out from our official handle becomes a ‘leaked’ video with all kinds of bizarre insinuations!! It’s a promo for the exit poll where we are doing a bit of ‘over-acting’ : itna toh samajhna chahiye doston."
This was followed by Congress leader Digvijaya Singh, who took to Twitter to share the clip with a caption that read, "Almost 35 years of credibility of IndiaToday is at stake. Is Pradeep Gupta, the CEO of Axis My India survey on which he is claiming, a resident of Balaghat Madhya Pradesh? Is it also true that his family has been associated with the Sangh for three generations? Can impartiality be expected from them?"
Not surprisingly, people had plenty to say about the clip on Twitter. One user wrote, "Why did @IndiaToday delete this tweet and video featuring Rahul Kanwal, pollster and Habitual #FakeNewsPeddler Rajdeep Sardesai ? Manipulation ???@aajtak"
The Assembly Elections Exit Polls 2023 results were unveiled on Thursday, with the BJP likely to triumph in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, while the Congress may seize Telangana. This was the topic of discussion in the viral video, which sparked much debate on social media.
