Indians want political change

This report examines political attitudes in India and is based on 2,464 face-to-face interviews with adults 18 and older, between December 7, 2013 and January 12, 2014. The survey covers 15 of the 17 most populous states (Kerala and Assam were excluded) and the Union Territory of Delhi, which together are home to about 91% of the adult Indian population. People were asked their views of major political leaders in India, their preference for which party should lead the next government, and assessments of the two major parties – the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the current head of the governing coalition, Indian National Congress (INC).
