(1/n) How to Manufacture opinion?

This is a story published today in the @timesofindia The headline might mislead you to think of this as an overwhelming opinion of parents from Hyderabad.
(2/n) But the reality is that the headline is based on an online survey conducted by a private association in which 1118 people participated and 918 felt that the schools should be opened only after a cure or vaccine is found.
