Senior congress leader M Veerappa Moily, on Wednesday, said that the exit-poll results were aimed at boosting investor sentiment on the stock market and “disrupting” opposition unity.

He said the predictions do not reflect the reality on ground, and claimed that some agencies who have conducted them have now “backed out” saying “they are full of errors”.

Moily also said, “It (exit polls predicting second term for the Modi government) must have been done with some ulterior motive. Number one is to project the stock market ... people have gained between ₹4.5 lakh crore to ₹5 lakh crore.”
