Bhubaneswar, Jan 15: Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has been named as the most popular Chief Minister in a mega survey ‘Desh Ka Mood’ conducted by national media ABP News.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was the second popular CM of India followed by Jagan Reddy of Andhra Pradesh.

On the other end of spectrum, the Uttarakhand CM Trivendra Singh Rawat was arguably the least popular CM in India followed closely by Haryana CM Manohar Lal Khattar and Punjab CM Capt Amarinder Singh with lowest satisfaction ratings in their respective states, the survey reveals, the report said.

The poll conducted by ABP News along with C-Voter shows PM Modi heads and shoulders above his rivals in terms of national level popularity. During the Covid-19 crisis, his numbers went up further, just on the lines of pro-Government sentiments across the Globe for leaders who are considered strong decision makers. Modi remains as much popular today as he was on May 16, 2014.
