This sustained high approval for Prime Minister Modi comes nearly a year after his historic third consecutive victory in the Indian general elections in 2024. Political observers and analysts credit his enduring popularity to a combination of factors including a perceived strong hand in economic governance, the successful rollout of various social welfare programs, and a compelling nationalist narrative that resonates deeply with a significant segment of the Indian populace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Morning Consult survey, which tracks leader approval ratings across major democracies, revealed that South Korean President Lee Jae-myung was a distant second with a 59% approval rating. This is a notable achievement for President Myung, who only recently assumed the highest office in South Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump, who is widely expected to be a significant figure in future American political landscapes, was positioned eighth on the list with an approval rating of 44%. Despite having won the U.S. election in November 2024, his standing in this global survey reflects differing public perceptions across various nations and perhaps ongoing controversies. The inclusion of a non-current head of state in such a ranking typically indicates their continued global influence and high public profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The survey results are a significant boost for India’s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), providing a strong validation of their governance model and Prime Minister Modi’s leadership. For Modi, these high approval ratings provide a robust mandate as he continues to drive India’s growth trajectory, addresses domestic challenges, and navigates an increasingly complex global geopolitical environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Morning Consult’s methodology involves conducting online interviews and weighting data to approximate representative samples of adults in each country. The ratings represent a trailing seven-day simple moving average of views, offering a consistent and timely snapshot of public sentiment towards national leaders. The detailed breakdown of the survey, encompassing other global leaders and their respective approval figures, offers valuable insights into the current landscape of international political popularity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
