AARAA Mastan got it horribly wrong in the recent Andhra Pradesh Elections. He gave a clear edge to YSR Congress in his Post-Poll Survey while TDP+ won with a whopping 15+ edge in the actual results.
Mastan worked hand in hand with TV9 and Sakshi to create a perception in favor of the YSR Congress.

On Polling Day, we saw him giving a byte to TV9 (in favor of YSR Congress) even as the voters were standing in queues to cast their votes.
He was sitting in Sakshi Studio making big comments about his organization and degrading comments on fellow survey agencies like Axis My India.

With this election, Mastan is stripped naked after the results. Many believe that Mastan tried to favor either the YSR Congress or the Betting Mafia with his surveys.
It looks like he is once again parroting the YSR Congress agenda to cover up his wrong prediction.

In an interview, he made absurd comments about EVM Tampering trying to say his survey is not wrong.
He cited the example of Elon Musk saying that EVMs can be tampered. He further added that a person like Musk who is very knowledgeable in Technology can not be wrong.
The fact is that Musk is right if it is the case of EVMs used in the United States. The EVMs used in India are very different and can not be tampered.
He also cited the example of many parties complaining about EVMs in the past.
He also added that the results are abnormal this time and so, there are doubts. If two major parties (TDP and Janasena) are combined winning 164 seats is abnormal, the 151 seats by YSR Congress in 2019 should be even more abnormal.
The fact that YSR Congress is not fighting a legal battle over the issue, itself indicates that there is no substance in the allegation.
Until now, we have seen only the political parties saying these cock and bull stories. If Psephologists also propagate these lame theories, it only indicates they are past their expiry date.
