A fake survey on Karnataka polls has been circulating on Whats App and claims to be from BBC News. We'd like to make absolutely clear that it's a #fake and does not come from the BBC. The BBC does not commission pre-election surveys in India. #fakenews

BBC denied any such information is not being provided by BBC as they never conduct any election-related Surveys in India.
The Circulated message is in support of BJP and assumed that people behind the scene are indented to misguide the voters and the survey itself contain irrelevant facts
The fake message twists an opinion poll conducted by Jan Ki Baat.K Karnataka is having 224 total numbers of assembly constituency and survey it says 234 and out of 135 won by BJP
