ABP Cvoter Survey for Uttarakhand Election 2022: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) looks comfortable as it completes five years of governance in  Uttarakhand even as it witnessed a major overhaul with three different chief ministers taking charge in the past less than one year. 


As polls are due early next year, it is to be seen whether all the changes will translate into a solid comeback for the BJP in Uttarakhand.


To understand the mood of the voters, ABP News and CVoter conducted a survey ahead of the much-awaited electoral battle.


The BJP-led alliance had won 57 seats in the 2017 assembly polls, while Congress-plus had managed to win just 11 seats.


In the 2022 assembly polls, the survey findings show, the Congress is emerging as a tough contender against the BJP in Uttarakhand, though it is falling  short of the numbers required to wrest the state.
