Modi tops the list of world leaders in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic.

In April 2020, a poll from a market research company stated that Modi was topping approval ratings.

According to analysis undertaken by Morning Consult, with a net approval rating of 68 percent, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been ranked the number one amongst world leaders during the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.

This data was collected from January 1 to April 14, 2020, based on an average of 447 daily interviews for each non-U.S. leader and 7,039 daily interviews for Donald Trump, who was then U.S. President.

The COVID-19 pandemic has given rise to a lot of potentially dangerous misinformation. For reliable advice on COVID-19, including symptoms, prevention, and available treatment, please refer to the World Health Organization or your national healthcare authority.
