Desh Ka Mood Survey: BJP to retain MP, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, UP a tough task
New Delhi, Oct 4: With 2019 Lok Sabha elections round the corner, ABP News conducted the "Desh Ka Mood" survey to judge the mood of the nation. The findings in the survey highlight people's opinion about the performance of the BJP-led NDA government and their viewpoint on the opposition parties.
The opposition parties have reached a "broad strategic understanding" to together defeat the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

The dilemma facing the Opposition parties is: should they form and unite under a national platform with the specific objective of stalling the BJP in the crucial 2019 Lok Sabha polls or should they instead opt for a tacit understanding?
Political analysts feel that failure of the Opposition to unite against the BJP government on various issues, the weakening of the Congress since its defeat in the 2014 general elections and the consequently, absence of a strong alternative to the saffron party has aided the BJP's rise.
Here is the scenario in different states ahead of the Lok Sabha polls
Uttar Pradesh
The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance will suffer a huge loss in Uttar Pradesh if Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) fight 2019 Lok Sabha election together.
As per the survey, if Congress joins SP-BSP alliance in Uttar Pradesh, their coalition will get 56 seats and the NDA to get only 24.
