State of the Nation: Personalities and leadership

Most people want to see Rahul Gandhi as the country's next prime minister. The percentage of those who want to see Rahul as PM has increased by three times since 2009. There has been a sharp decline in the proportion of those who have mentioned Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's name for the country's top job. There has also been a steady decline in the proportion of people who have mentioned Sonia Gandhi's name ever since she chose not to take up the post in 2004. Significantly, the top three preferences for prime minister are all from the Congress. From the BJP, L K Advani's support has declined drastically, while those wanting Narendra Modi's as PM has risen slightly.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's performance has been rated much less favourably than it was when his government was re-elected two years ago. While the level of satisfaction with Manmohan gradually rose through his first tenure, it now appears to be on the way down. Two years ago, for every dissatisfied person, there were four people satisfied with Manmohan's work. Now there are only two. Among Congress voters, satisfaction with Manmohan Singh is higher at 69 per cent compared to the overall trend.

Manmohan Singh does not appear to retain the squeaky clean image that he once enjoyed. The proportion of those who believe that he is clean and honest is less than those who believe that while he is clean and honest he has done nothing to control corruption as well as those who say he is corrupt. This is true even for Congress voters. Interestingly, although a majority of those who think he is clean and honest want him to continue as PM (44 per cent), a sizeable proportion of them (30 per cent) also want him replaced.
