Desh Ka Mood Survey: Narendra Modi set to return to power with 291 seats in 2019 if no SP-BSP alliance in UP

NEW DELHI: With just four months to go for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections and the political parties upping the ante against each other, ABP News on Thursday conducted the 'Mood of the Nation' survey to gauge the public opinion of the electorate and the nation ahead of the crucial polls. The opinion poll WAS aired on ABP News from 7 pm onwards and also flashed here. The previous survey the channel commissioned in November gave the NDA the nationwide upper hand over the UPA and projected a whopping 300 out of 543 seats for the ruling coalition. The Congress-led UPA was winning 116 seats. As per the opinion poll conducted last month, the worrying sign for the BJP was PM Narendra Modi’s waning popularity over the last one year. The good news for the Congress was the steady incremental advance of its President Rahul Gandhi even though he’s trailing way behind from Modi’s popularity chart. A slight sign of worry for the NDA was the dip in the nationwide vote share compared to 2014. It was seen getting 38 per cent as against UPA’s 26 per cent.
