63 percent of Indians believe that India's value has increased in the world during the tenure of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

New Delhi:

Narendra Modi came to power for the first time as Prime Minister in the year 2014. Soon after, work started on India's relations with abroad and India's image abroad. In a short time, heads of states of many big countries started visiting India so that agreements could be signed. During this time, PM Narendra Modi also went on a tour of twenty countries. As a result, the situation today is that Indians settled abroad are not only fans of PM Modi, but Joe Biden, who is in the highest position of a developed and most powerful country like America, also had to publicly admit that Modi is very popular in his country. Biden said That Modi is so popular that he is starting to suffer.

Along with PM Modi's popularity, the fact that India's position in terms of foreign policy has now become much stronger than before. Our country is entering into agreements with many countries according to its will and conditions. Big countries are not able to oppose India even if they want. The NDTV-CSDS survey also sought opinions from the people of India on many questions regarding the same issue. According to most, during the time of PM Modi, the value of our country has increased a lot worldwide.

According to
our survey, 63 percent of Indians believe that India's value has increased worldwide during the tenure of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. According to 23 percent of the people, this has not happened, while 14 percent of the people surveyed did not answer this question.


It is not just about increasing the country's prestige, but more than half of the people believe that India is the world's crown right now, because we are becoming one of the fastest growing economies. Big countries also agree to make agreements and deals on our terms. In response to the question asked in the survey, 54 percent of the respondents said that this statement is absolutely correct. Half of them, 27 per cent, said it did not happen, while 19 per cent said nothing in response.

When it comes to a fast-growing economy, it is difficult to imagine it
without foreign investment. More than half (55 per cent) of those who reviewed the government's performance on the issue said India was the most attractive country for foreign investment. While 18 per cent did not respond, 27 per cent said India was not an attractive destination to attract foreign investment.

The improvement in India's relations with
developed countries and bilateral relations is visible to most people, but how is India able to deal with the problems being faced by its neighbors? While 28 per cent of the respondents were calling the Modi government's performance in handling and maintaining relations with China "bad". At the same time, 29 percent described the performance of the Modi government as 'good'. 13 per cent of the respondents found the central government's performance in relations with China "average". That is, there were 52 percent people who did not feel bad about the performance of the Indian government in terms of relations with China.

The Modi government's performance
in relations with Pakistan has always been creating problems for India's arch-rival neighbor Pakistan. Whether it is spreading separatism in the Kashmir Valley or carrying out terrorist attacks, Pakistan has always behaved like an 'enemy' country. Not only this, Pakistan is the only country with which India has had to fight four wars since independence. Four times Pakistan has eaten the mouth. So, the performance of the Modi government on relations with Pakistan was also questioned in the survey, in response to which 28 percent of the people said that the performance of the Indian government is 'good'. While 13 per cent found the government's performance 'average'. Thirty per cent were unhappy with the Modi government's performance on the issue of Pakistan, while 30 per cent did not respond to this question.

Amidst all
these questions, the survey 'Public Opinion' also asked whether Indian art and culture is getting respect all over the world under the Modi government. On this, 59 percent of the public opinion was in favor of the government. 24 per cent said Indian art and culture were not getting respect, while 17 per cent refrained from answering this question.

How was the survey conducted?
The survey was conducted by NDTV and Lokniti - Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS) across 19 parliamentary constituencies across 71 states in India, with over 7,000 respondents asked questions on various issues. The survey, conducted between May 10 and 19, 2023, included randomly selected people from all sections of society.
