The seven-day moving average of adult citizens of each nation’s various sample sizes is the basis for calculating these approval ratings.

The poll also showed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi enjoyed levels of support, even amid the height of the second wave of the Covid-19 outbreak. Even though there were complaints about how India dealt with it, Indians still thought that the PM Modi-led government gave the pandemic a strong response.
