New Delhi: Following the intense Assembly elections in five states, attention has now turned to the upcoming Lok Sabha elections scheduled for next year. The state elections ended in a 3-2 victory for the BJP, which kept power in Madhya Pradesh while wresting control of Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan from the Congress. 


However, with the general election just a few months away, every political party is actively devising its strategies based on its own considerations.


ABP and CVoter reached out to the people to find out whether the star candidates for the Lok Sabha polls such as Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, Smriti Irani, and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi would be able to retain their seats or not for the next five years.


According to the survey, Narendra Modi, Rajnath Singh, Rahul Gandhi, and Amit Shah will be ahead of their opponents by a significant margin, while Ajay Kumar Teni, Sonia Gandhi, and Chirag Paswan, among others, will lead only with a small margin.
