Lokniti conducted a Post Poll survey for the 2016 West Bengal Assembly elections.

Here is the Methodology of the Survey :-

The survey was conducted among 3471 respondents in 212 locations spread across 53 Assembly Constituencies. The Assembly Constituencies were randomly selected using the Probability Proportionate to Size method. Thereafter four polling stations within each of the sampled constituencies were selected using the Systematic Random Sampling method. Finally, the respondents were also randomly selected using the same method from the latest electoral rolls of the sampled polling stations. The fieldwork was conducted between April 13 and May 10 after voting had ended in each phase. Specially trained field investigators asked the respondents, in a face-to- face interview a detailed set of questions which could take up to 20-25 minutes. The achieved sample matches largely with the actual demographic profile of the population of West Bengal.The fieldwork of the present study in West Bengal was coordinated by Dr. Suprio Basu (Department of Sociology, Kalyani University) and supervised by Dr. Jyoti Prasad Chatterjee (Barrackpore Rastraguru Surendranath College).
