71% think govt's stimulus package will lead to economic recovery: Study

Even though a majority support the economic package, fewer than half see it benefitting them personally

Around 71 per cent of Indians believe the government's over Rs 20 trillion stimulus package will lead to economic recovery, a study said.

The Centre earlier this month announced a mega relief package to mitigate the economic impact of the Covid-19 crisis.

A vast majority (71 per cent) of Indians either agree or strongly agree that the relief package will lead to economic recovery, the study by global market research and data company YouGov said.

The survey was done online by YouGov Omnibus among 1,005 respondents in India between May 19-22, 2020.
