Rajagopal in soup for poll prediction

'Reporting the outcome of any sort of exit polls is banned over electronic media'

Hyderabad: Former Congress leader Lagadapati Rajagopal, currently a leading light of the Jai Samaikyandhra Party, would face criminal charges for violating the model code of conduct by announcing an exit poll result at a press meet on Saturday.
AP Chief Electoral Officer Bhanwar Lal on Sunday said that reporting the outcome of any sort of exit polls is banned over electronic media. “It is a violation of the code of conduct and our Media Certification and Monitoring Committee would be scrutinising the video clip for more details,” said the CEO.
