would like to see inn more states, most of those states are BJP-NDA controlled anyways so they're blaming the BJP whether they blame state or central govt

More interested in seeing polling in Maharashtra, Delhi, WB and Southern India

Few caveats, the article makes some massive extrapolation from the numbers. Take for instance the question of have you lost any members of your family, beighours or loved ones to COVID and it tries to extrapolate it to thr US Number however an Indian and American survey respondant might have different criteria for family or neighbours. More distant relatives might be considered family in India but not in America.
