New Delhi: Unemployment with concerns around job security and not coronavirus are the top-most worries among urban Indians. Financial and political corruption is the second leading cause of worry. The pandemic is the third leading cause of worry with concerns around the coronavirus climbing a notch compared to the last month.
Nearly 70% of urban Indians believe the country is moving in the right direction, according to findings of the Ipsos What Worries the World global survey for December.
The research agency carried out its latest What Worries the World global survey, in December. The survey is conducted in 28 countries via the Ipsos online panel system. The countries included are Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, France, Great Britain, Germany, Hungary, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, Peru, Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, and the United States. In all 19,003 online interviews were conducted between November 19th and December 3rd 2021.
“India is placed 2nd in the pecking order in optimism, Saudi Arabia comes up tops with at least 86% of its citizens polled believing their country is moving in the right direction,” the researcher said while revealing findings of the survey, financial daily, Livemint reported.
Amit Adarkar, CEO, Ipsos India, attributed this sentiment in the country to the reopening and a resurgence in consumer spending. “The survey is about governance and our cautious approach in the last few months has led to increased vaccination and mass reductions in community transmissions and this is reflected in high optimism among urban Indians. But Omicron has hit our market and the numbers are going up. Stringent Covid protocols will need to be the order of the day to tackle the virus in the initial stages,” he said.
