Our data from the

also reveals that a majority of 8 in 10 Hindus embrace religious pluralism, and only 11% see India as solely for
#Hindus
. Surprisingly, the youth lead the charge with 81% prioritizing diversity over 73% of the older generation.
The gender divide in voting preferences in the
#DelhiElections2020

Men
AAP 49%
BJP 43%
Women
AAP 60%
BJP 35%
In our India-wide survey during Lok Sabha 2019 we read out 2 statements to voters & asked them which one they agreed with
76% chose👇🏾
"India belongs to citizens of all religions equally, not just Hindus"
15% chose👇🏾
"India primarily belongs to only Hindus"
9% didn't answer
From our survey during
