The figures were high across the country with as many as 88% supporting the Prime Minister.The Modi appeal was visible with regard to other political rivals as well. While the survey found a 57% approval rating for Sonia Gandhi , it was 58% for Rahul Gandhi at 39%. These percentages are the result of a yes-no question regarding individual leaders.Modi's lowest ratings are for handling of communal relations, at 50%, and for his efforts towards curbing air pollution, at 48%. Women are particularly critical of how he has dealt with communal relations, as are people in north India. Rural Indians view the PM's handling of corruption less favourably than city dwellers.
