While it was not clear whether the proposal has already got support of the Congress party, sources said the party is unwilling to concede at least in two seats at present held by the Left Front.
In an opinion poll conducted by India TV-CNX in 27 Parliamentary constituencies of Uttar Pradesh between March 1-3, the majority clearly did not approve of the demand to present evidences of air strikes by IAF on terror camps in Pakistan.
Last Tuesday's air strikes were seen as retaliation to the February 14 attack on CRPF jawans in Pulwama in Kashmir, in which 40 personnel were killed. Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed had claimed responsibility of the attack.
The survey found that while 42.02 per cent voters thought economic issues will be most important while voting in upcoming Lok Sabha elections, 24.35 per cent opined that Pulwama terror attack and its aftermath would affect their decision.
Sixty-two per cent respondents in the India TV-CNX opinion poll backed war with Pakistan to end the dispute, while 25.79 per cent felt that government should continue to strategically target terror camps across the border.
A whopping 91.78 pc respondents said Abhinandan's release within two days was a big diplomatic victory for India, while 2.25 pc said "No". The remaining 5.97 pc had no opinion.
The Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) which was staring at major rout in Uttar Pradesh as per last India TV-CNX Opionion Poll's has made significant stride in the post IAF airstrike scenario.
