ABP-CVoter: An exclusive opinion poll on the Chhattisgarh Assembly elections conducted by CVoter for ABP News revealed that incumbent Prime Minister Narendra Modi remains India's most popular leader and is the most preferred choice for the country's top job.


The opinion poll tried to gauge the mood of the state as PM Modi preps for a series of upcoming elections, including the Lok Sabha polls scheduled for the next year. It was conducted between July 18 to August 19 among 7,696 adults across Chhattisgarh.


The survey revealed that PM Modi was the most popular choice for the top post as he beat Rahul Gandhi by over 40 percentage points.


Even though in the survey, Congress is projected to win 48 to 54 seats and return to power in poll-bound Chhattisgarh, the good news for the BJP is that PM Modi's popularity remains strong in the state.


As many as 62 per cent of the respondents have said that Narendra Modi is their top choice for PM. His nearest rival Rahul Gandhi is at a distant second with only 19 per cent of votes.


The others are far behind for the PM post - Arvind Kejriwal is in third spot (5%), followed by Yogi Adityanath (2.8%), Mamata Banerjee (2.7%), and 8% for others.
