Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], May 31 (ANI): Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Friday appealed to the party workers, office bearers and candidates to remain vigilant and “not get misled by BJP’s exit polls.”
In a post on X, the SP chief said, “Just as you have been cautious throughout the elections, similarly you have to stay outside the strong room and be alert till you get the certificate on the day of counting.”
Akhilesh Yadav alleged that as soon as the elections are over, the BJP’s ‘media mandali’ will start showing false figures of the elections.
“They will tell that BJP is winning around 300 seats, which is completely false. They do this to demoralise you so that you become disappointed, but you should not fall for their words and on the day of counting, you have to protect the strong room and be vigilant so that no kind of rigging can take place,” Akhilesh Yadav said in the post.
The SP chief further urged to not get “misled” by BJP’s exit polls and remain “completely alert.”
“I am making this special appeal so that you people do not get misled by the BJP exit polls and remain completely alert, keeping your confidence and remembering your basic mantra of victory, voting and being cautious, celebrate the victory of the Constitution, democracy and the people of the country only after taking the certificate of victory,” he said.
