Dr Sharad Singh Yadav, the party's central spokesperson, said that this process has been adopted to evaluate issues like the conduct of party’s members, works accomplished and to know if the public is satisfied with their performance. The opinion poll is also aimed at assessing other aspects such as behavior after their election to the local level bodies.
