Description
According to Dinamani News, OneIndia and Asianet, the AIADMK will win 122 seats, the DMK 111 seats and the AIADMK 1 seat in a joint Tamil Nadu poll conducted by Democracy Network and Ungal Kural.
Many Political party supporters including AIADMK and BJP, have been sharing the poll on social media. AIADMK has also posted the results of the poll on its official Twitter page.
Many people think that the article published in the Economic Times news about the poll is true. Right -wing English-language websites such as swarajyamag have also published articles and videos about the poll, citing the Economic Times.
But the Democracy Times Network has issued a statement denying the poll, which is going viral. Does not work with any organizations like Ungal Kural, which will only be published on the official page with our logo in the poll we publish. Tamil Nadu polls will be released on the 25th.
Viral polls have both the logo as the Democracy Network and Ungal Kural. It’s not like the Democracy Times Network logo. The Democracy Times Network has denied the poll went viral. Also, there is no poll or official information available on the Democracy Network and Ungal Kural. Why no such page or logo is even available.
Subsequently, when we contacted the employee who did not want to be named on behalf of the Dinamani newspaper, from the Youturn side we questioned where the evidence for the poll was taken from. He said he would ask the company about it and then call.
In this case, the poll message that was published on the daily website has been deleted.
Explanation
In our search, a poll conducted jointly by the Democracy Network and Ungal Kural reveals that news and information spread on social networking sites are fake.
