Description
With the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections set to take place in April, some screenshots and information on the Puthiyathalaimurai news agency’s poll on what constitutes a well-governed government is going viral on social media as the media, election polls, alliances and the media are all over the place.
The poll shows that the people have overestimated the AIADMK government instead of asking questions as to which government has implemented and which government has kept its promises.

Searching for this poll conducted by the Puthiyathalaimurai News Agency, we came across a poll conducted by the Puthiyathalaimurai News Agency in February 2016.
The screenshots are taken from the Puthiyathalaimurai ‘s poll video released in February before the 2016 assembly elections are now being circulated by AIADMK supporters.
However, no news has been released that the new generation news agency has conducted a public opinion poll based on the AIADMK and DMK rule for the 2021 elections. Examining the pages of the Puthiyathalaimurai news front page, including the YouTube channel, no such news was featured.

When we contacted Manoj, the digital editor of Puthiyathalaimurai News, about the viral poll, he denied that it was currently an election poll.
