Lok Sabha Opinion Polls 2024: Who is Next PM of India in 2024?

53% of respondents prefer Narendra Modi as the Prime Minister in 2024
- 66% of voters think the PM is doing a Good/ Outstanding Job overall
- 48% of the voters think the Government is doing a Good/ Outstanding job on the economy
None of the opposition candidates cross 10% in preference for PM
NDA’s Strong Voting Blocks (2019)
- Upper Caste
- OBCs
- These two voting blocks make up about 55% of India’s population. NDA wins nearly 75% of its votes from the two voting blocks
India 2024 Opinion Poll: The factors favoring Narendra Modi’s re-election in 2024 are:
- TINA (There Is No Alternative) – The TINA factor has been one of the major factors that helped Narendra Modi cruise through the 2019 Lok Sabha election. The same seems to be turning out to be a major factor that may help Narendra Modi win the consecutive 3rd. As of now, the public is yet to be convinced by any of the opposition faces who could be an alternative to Narendra Modi in 2024.
- Divided Opposition – After the 2014 Lok Sabha election, there have been talks about opposition unity. But the opposition unity has been more hype than reality. In 2019, a Mahagathbandan was formed to take on Narendra Modi and his party BJP. But by the time the Lok Sabha election in 2019 came, the Mahagathbandan looked more like an alliance between a few parties than the mega opposition coalition. The same turned out to be true even for the 2024 Lok Sabha. The opposition has more faces who are eyeing the Prime Minister’s chair and none want to compromise despite all having the same common enemy, Narendra Modi.
- Funding – The other main factor that the opposition in India lacks is funding. BJP is not short of funds and with power in major states of India, they can contest any election with a huge might. The opposition on the other hand does not have enough funds to take on the mighty BJP. Though they may show the intent of defeating Narendra Modi and the BJP, the funding issue will keep their campaigning to limited reach and BJP will be able to spread their message to the majority and the message will be loud and clear.
- Performance on key development initiatives: Apart from the previously implemented, Swacch Bharat Yojana, LPG schemes, PM Kisan Samman Yojana, and PM Awas Yojana has also caught pace.

Summary of Rahul Gandhi’s California Speech

Gandhi began his speech by criticizing the BJP government for its handling of the economy. He said that the government had failed to create jobs, that it had increased poverty, and that it had made India a more unequal country. He also said that the government had failed to address the rising cost of living, which was putting a strain on the middle class and the poor.

Gandhi then criticized the BJP government for its social policies. He said that the government had been divisive and that it had promoted Hindu nationalism. He also said that the government had failed to protect the rights of minorities, such as Muslims and Dalits.

Gandhi also spoke about the importance of diversity and unity in India. He said that India was a country of many different cultures, religions, and languages. He said that it was important to protect this diversity, and that the INC was committed to doing so. He also said that the INC was committed to building a more united India, where everyone had equal opportunity.

Finally, Gandhi called on the INC to do more to address the needs of marginalized communities. He said that the INC needed to do more to fight for the rights of farmers, workers, and the poor. He also said that the INC needed to do more to protect the environment and to promote sustainable development.

2024 Lok Sabha Election: Rahul Gandhi vs Modi

Observation and Findings

Gujarat – Modi’s Strongest State: Narendra Modi enjoys significant popularity in his home state of Gujarat. Given his strong connection with the people and his developmental track record as the former Chief Minister of the state, he tends to outperform Rahul Gandhi here.
Andhra Pradesh – Modi underperforms Jagan Reddy: In Andhra Pradesh, Modi’s performance is relatively weaker compared to the incumbent Chief Minister, Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy. Despite the BJP’s efforts to make inroads in the state, Jagan Reddy’s popularity and regional factors seem to overshadow Modi’s influence.
Tamil Nadu – Modi’s Weakest State: Tamil Nadu is one of the states where Modi’s influence is relatively weak. The BJP has traditionally struggled to gain a significant foothold in the state’s political landscape. Therefore, Rahul Gandhi and his party often fare better in Tamil Nadu compared to Modi and the BJP.
West Bengal – Strong CM Mamata Banerjee: Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister of West Bengal, is a formidable opponent for both Modi and Rahul Gandhi. She enjoys strong regional support and has successfully defended her position against the BJP’s attempts to make significant inroads in the state.

Maharashtra – Rahul Gandhi fares better than in Rajasthan: Rahul Gandhi tends to fare better in Maharashtra, where the Congress party has a more established presence, compared to Rajasthan. In Maharashtra, the Congress has historically performed relatively well, giving Rahul Gandhi a stronger base of support.
Karnataka – Rahul Gandhi’s weak performance: In recently ruled Karnataka, Rahul Gandhi’s performance is not particularly strong. The state has seen a political seesaw between the BJP and the Congress, and Rahul Gandhi’s influence has been somewhat limited, indicating that he struggles to make significant headway in the state.
BJP-ruled states – Yogi Adityanath’s strength: Yogi Adityanath, the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, enjoys considerable popularity and strength within the BJP-ruled states. He has established a strong image and has been successful in consolidating the BJP’s position in the state.
Weakest CM in BJP-ruled states: Among the BJP-ruled states, Bhupendra Patel is considered the weakest Chief Minister. However, this is expected as he is relatively new to the position. Eknath Shinde is also perceived as one of the weaker BJP Chief Ministers.

2024 Lok Sabha Election: Latest Developments

2024 Lok Sabha Election: Google Trends Last Week Report

Recent Google data reveals an intriguing shift in momentum for the Congress party, as it appears to be gaining traction in several key states, including Karnataka, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh.
In Karnataka, the Congress party seems to be experiencing a potential turnaround, as indicated by the search trends.
Bihar, a politically significant state, also shows promising signs for the Congress party. The increasing search volume suggests a growing interest and engagement with the party’s message and candidates, potentially translating into improved electoral performance.
Madhya Pradesh, known as a stronghold for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), is witnessing a noteworthy surge in searches related to the Congress.
Uttar Pradesh, India’s most populous state and a crucial battleground, remains a focal point for BJP. The majority of searches in the past week coming from Uttar Pradesh signifies a high level of public interest and involvement in the electoral process.
Uttrakhand, a state with a relatively smaller population, is also witnessing significant search activity related to the BJP.

2024 Lok Sabha Election: Karnataka Election Report

In a momentous electoral triumph, the Congress party has secured the biggest mandate in Karnataka since 1989, clinching a staggering 135 seats out of the total 224 assembly seats. The party’s impressive performance signifies a resounding endorsement of its policies and leadership by the people of the state. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), on the other hand, faced a substantial setback, being reduced to a mere 65 seats. The Janata Dal (Secular) [JD(S)] managed to secure 19 seats, positioning itself as a key player in the political landscape.

Notably, the Congress also witnessed a significant surge in its vote share, increasing by nearly 5% compared to the 2018 elections. This rise in popularity reflects the electorate’s appreciation of the party’s efforts and initiatives. The Congress’ focused campaign, centered on development and welfare programs, struck a chord with the voters, catapulting the party to an overwhelming victory.

How Will Karnataka Assembly Election Affect 2024 Lok Sabha Elections in India?”

Karnataka, with its significant number of seats in the Lok Sabha, has emerged as a crucial determinant of power for the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government. In the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) demonstrated its prowess by securing an impressive victory, winning 17 out of the 28 seats in Karnataka. The party further solidified its dominance in 2019 by triumphing in 25 seats, clearly establishing Karnataka as a stronghold for the BJP.

However, the recent 2023 Assembly Election in Karnataka has marked a significant turning point. The electoral landscape witnessed a potential resurgence of the Congress party, indicating a possible shift in power dynamics. The Congress party’s performance in the assembly elections signals a renewed strength and raises the prospect of their comeback in Karnataka.

This potential return of the Congress in Karnataka carries profound implications for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections in 2024. Firstly, it challenges the BJP’s stronghold in the state and presents a formidable opposition force that could potentially chip away at the BJP’s seat tally. The Congress, buoyed by its performance in the assembly elections, may mobilize its resources and strategize to regain lost ground, targeting key constituencies that were previously under BJP control.

Secondly, the outcome in Karnataka could have ripple effects on the overall political landscape of India. A resurgence of the Congress in Karnataka would inject fresh energy into the party, instilling confidence among its members and supporters nationwide. This renewed vigor could potentially translate into improved performance in other states, thereby altering the overall equation in the Lok Sabha.

Furthermore, the outcome of the 2023 Assembly Election in Karnataka could influence the perception and mood of the electorate leading up to the Lok Sabha elections. If the Congress manages to secure a substantial victory, it could boost the morale of its supporters and potentially attract swing voters, creating a wave of momentum that could favor the party in the national elections.

Electorate rejection in Karnataka: The BJP’s defeat in Karnataka, the only southern state where it has been in power, is a significant setback for the party. It indicates that the BJP’s traditional strategies may not be as effective in the southern region. However, the party has shown resilience and determination to stick to its political-governance agenda, suggesting that it will not be easily deterred by electoral setbacks.

Concerns about the road ahead: The BJP’s lack of organization in the poll-bound states of Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Rajasthan is a cause for concern. These states are crucial for the party’s electoral strategy, and internal disarray could hinder its chances of retaining power. The BJP will need to address its internal issues and strengthen its organizational structure to increase its prospects in these states.

Recent government decisions: The promulgation of an Ordinance to nullify the Supreme Court’s ruling on the “services” issue, the withdrawal of Rs 2,000 notes, and the removal of Kiren Rijiju from the Law Ministry have surprised both critics and party insiders. These decisions demonstrate the BJP’s determination to pursue its agenda, even if it means overriding legal judgments or making unexpected moves. The party’s message is clear: it will do what it believes is necessary to further its goals, regardless of criticism or opposition.

Sashi Tharoor:

It will be impossible for the Bharatiya Janata Party to replicate its 2019 electoral triumph in 2024. It is ‘conceivable’ that the ruling party can lose ’50 seats’ in the Lok Sabha.

Amartya Sen

Trinamool Congress supremo Mamata Banerjee has the ability to be India’s next Prime Minister, but it is yet to be established whether the West Bengal Chief Minister could be able to pull the forces of public dismay against the BJP.

In 2014, Narendra Modi and his political party Bhartiya Janata Party won the Lok Sabha election. BJP on its own won 282 seats while the coalition, NDA won a total of 336. It was the first time since 1984 that a party had won enough seats to govern without the support of other parties.

In 2019, after five years of anti-incumbency, the political pundits were predicting that BJP will emerge as the single largest party DNA Exclusive | Jungle raj, legacy of corruption, 1 million jobs: Why ‘Nitish for PM in 2024’ is easier said not win a majority of its own.

The result surprised many as Narendra Modi-led BJP won 303 seats and the BJP lead coalition NDA (National Democratic Alliance) won 353 seats. Rahul Gandhi-led Congress was once again decimated. They managed to win only 52 seats. BJP managed to improve its vote share too, from 31% in 2014, BJP now got a 37.4% vote share.

Opinion Poll India 2024 Conclusion

The 2024 Lok Sabha election is still two years from now and several state elections are to take place before it. If the opposition is to defeat Narendra Modi and BJP in the 2024 Lok Sabha election they will have to win most of the upcoming Vidhan Sabha election.

The state that will go for election before the 2024 Lok Sabha election in Gujarat, Himachal, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Chattisgarh, Tripura, Nagaland, and Meghalaya. Barring Rajasthan and Chattisgarh, the rest of the states have either a BJP government or a BJP coalition government. The opposition needs to win a maximum of these states in order to keep their hopes high for the 2024 Lok Sabha election.

Therefore, considering the several factors, it can be said that Narendra Modi may be able to return to power once again unless the opposition comes together and place a strong face against him.
