News18 UP Mega Survey Highlights BJP Lead, Yogi's Popularity, and Key Voter Concerns Ahead of 2027PreviousNext

The News18 UP Mega Survey across 75 districts shows the BJP-led NDA holding a significant lead over the SP-Congress alliance ahead of the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath enjoys strong personal popularity, with 77.1% satisfaction in governance, especially on law and order. Employment remains a key concern, particularly among youth. Issues like inflation, exam paper leaks, and the Uniform Civil Code also influence voter priorities. Regional and caste-based variations shape the electoral landscape, with the SP-Congress alliance stronger among younger and unemployed voters.
