The argument states that opinion polls may affect the voters&#8217; minds and may affect the outcome of the elections. This is a valid concern, as opinion polls can indeed influence voters&#8217; decisions. For example, if a poll shows that one candidate is leading by a large margin, voters may be less likely to vote for the other candidate. This could lead to a situation where the candidate who wins the election does not actually have the support of the majority of voters.<\/p>\n<p>Argument II is weak because it does not provide a clear and specific reason why opinion polls should not be banned in India. The argument simply states that such polls are conducted all over the world. This does not address the concern that opinion polls may affect the voters&#8217; minds and may affect the outcome of the elections. In fact, the fact that opinion polls are conducted all over the world could be seen as evidence that they do not have a significant impact on the outcome of elections.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, only argument I is strong.
