Pre-poll survey predicts BJP return for a consecutive third term

Op India  

The voting for the Lok Sabha election is scheduled to begin on 19th April and the result will be pronounced on 4th June. Thirty per cent of National Democratic Alliance supporters liked him because he built the Ram Mandir, ten per cent because he offered job possibilities and another ten per cent because he boosted India’s standing globally. It also pointed towards the “consolation of Hindus.” The main factor for the BJP’s triumph in 2014 was its outstanding performance in the north and west of the country. However, the national party is expected to pick up ground in the southern stronghold owing to the bipolarity that has plateaued in Kerala, the Bharat Rashtra Samithi’s defeat in Telangana’s most recent assembly elections and the BJP’s partnership with the Telugu Desam Party in Andhra Pradesh. More than 50% of the participants conveyed contentment with the BJP’s governance over the past ten years, reflecting a positive outlook for extending the Modi administration’s tenure.
