Stop exit polls

Sir, — Pronouncing the results of an exit poll of a particular State through the electronic media when others are going to the polls the next day or subsequent days is not a fair practice; this will affect the choice of the voters in the other States.

The Election Commission should consider it as a corrupt practice indulged in to influence voters. Let us hope the Commission puts an end to such unfair practices.

A. Srikantaiah,
