Congress today dismissed an opinion poll predicting Rahul Gandhi as the third choice for prime ministerial prospect, terming it inaccurate.
"Survey reports always favour those who appoint them. Surveys predicted 19 seats for Congress in Chhattisgarh, but we got 39. Similarly results in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan assembly polls were unexpected contrary to surveys," AICC General Secretary B K Hariprasad told a news conference here.
He was responding to a query on a newspaper publishing an opinion poll carried out in eight cities.
