Who was polled? No info on that. Says Indians were polled. Which Indians? Urban people? Rural people? Males? Females? Income level? Education? No info on these.
Say how the sample was selected. Tell us what questions were asked. Tell us the results, and dont mix it with your opinion. All of us have opinions - does not mean they are all right.

More than half polls are simply made up and the rest are usually sponsored/financed by a particular company/organisation to use the data for its vested interest (like usefulness of its product), so these results are mostly biased and far from truth. So, whichever way you look, polls seldom reveal the true picture, thus we must treat these hundreds of polls we face everyday on news channels and elsewhere with caution and for rough estimates.
