Desh Ka Mood Surevy Live Updates: NDA maintains lead over UPA in West and Central India

Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday escalated his attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his silence on the multi-crore Punjab National Bank (PNB) scam.

NEW DELHI: The Opposition's unity against the Narendra Modi government was on display when HD Kumaraswamy was sworn-in as chief minister of Karnataka, who will lead the Congress-JDS alliance in the state. The show of strength by the leaders of opposition parties is being seen as a strong signal to the BJP about the possibility of formation of 'united front' to take on the BJP-led NDA in the Lok Sabha polls next year. ABP News has conducted Mood of The Nation Survey to gauge what the people across the nation feel about the NDA's performance and the Opposition's chances if elections were to be held today. Findings of the survey:
