  • Election Campaigning in a Transformed India
    TIF - Election Campaigning in a Transformed India MANJARI KATJU June 7, 2019 Waiting in line to vote | Al Jazeera English/Flickr (CC BY-SA 2.0) The Lok Sabha elections of 2019 are being held in a country that is very different from what it was in 2009 and 2014. What are political parties offering the new electorate? What will the outcome reveal of the transformation that has taken place? A Changed Context The general elections of 2019 are being held in an India which has been transformed in multifarious ways. To state the obvious, India has undergone a big change over the past three decades. Stating this fact and noting its specificities is important to understand the nature of electoral campaigning today. This is an India where more than half of the population is below 25 years and two-thirds is less than 35 (Sharma 2017); the middle class is growing, though the estimates of the size of the middle class vary, ranging from 5% - 6% to 25% - 30% of India’s population (Jodhka and Prakash 2016: 7); Census data (2011) shows that more than 30% of India’s population lives in urban areas, the number could be much higher if one were to look at satellite data and relax the official definition of an urban settlement (Sreevatsan 2017); the number of smart- phone users is expected to double from 404.1 million in 2017 to 829 million in 2022 (IANS 2018); agriculture’s share in GDP has declined to as little as 15% (Statistics Times 2019); and the number of people drawing sustenance from agriculture and allied activities has come down to about 56% (Census data 2011), this would be even lower if one only looks at those with agriculture as their primary occupation in 2018-19.

  • Digital Politics in India's 2019 General Elections
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Digital Politics in India’s 2019 General Elections NALIN MEHTA Nalin Mehta ([email protected]) is the executive editor at The Times of India-Online. He is an award-wining social scientist, author and journalist, whose books include Behind a Billion Screens: What Television Tells Us About Modern India and India on Television: How Satellite News Channels Changed the Ways We Think and Act. Vol. 54, Issue No. 51, 28 Dec, 2019 India’s 2019 general election was the first national election contested within a truly digital consumption society, wherein approximately half the voting population had access to digital pathways, and another one-third had access to social media. This article argues that what happens on digital platforms is no longer an externality or an adjunct to offline politics—it is constitutive of it and inseparable from larger political mobilisation. The 2019 general election shifted paradigms in Indian politics. The more obvious shift was electoral: with the Narendra Modi-led Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) became the first party in 35 years to return to power with an absolute majority that seemed to upend the conventional rules of Indian politics. The elections were also intimately connected to a second societal paradigm shift in India that happened between 2016 and 2019, which, in terms of its political impact, is comparatively less commented upon and is understudied. This is the impact of the rise of a digital data-consumption society driven by the second- highest smartphone penetration in the world (Canalys 2019; PTI 2018b), and the highest average data usage per smartphone, which reached 9.8 gigabytes (GB) per month at the end of 2018 (Ericsson 2019).

  • From Chaiwala to Chowkidar: Modi's Election Campaigns Online and Offline
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 From Chaiwala to Chowkidar: Modi's Election Campaigns Online and Offline RONOJOY SEN Ronojoy Sen ([email protected]) is Senior Research Fellow at the Institute of South Asian Studies & South Asian Studies Programme, National University of Singapore. Vol. 54, Issue No. 51, 28 Dec, 2019 The author is grateful for the assistance provided by Rishabh Srivastava for gathering and visualising the data. In the 2019 Indian general election, Prime Minister Narendra Modi countered corruption charges made by the Indian National Congress's (INC) Rahul Gandhi through the Chowkidar campaign. The author analyses how Modi and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) were successfully able to employ the Chowkidar slogan on social media and integrate it with their offline campaign. The Chowkidar campaign and use of social media, the author argues, are a part of Modi’s populist playbook, noting the similarities the most recent campaign has with the BJP’s Chaiwala campaign in the 2014 general election. Though the role of social media in the 2019 Indian general elections has been well documented, its precise impact continues to be debated. This article focuses on election campaigning on Twitter through an analysis of a campaign that centred around corruption charges made by then Indian National Congress President Rahul Gandhi against Prime Minister Narendra Modi—"Chowkidar Chor Hai" (the watchman is a thief). Modi and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) countered this in their own campaign that emphasised the phrase: "Main Bhi Chowkidar" (I am a watchman too). The campaign around chowkidars (watchmen) was an example of a high-impact social media campaign that utilised synergies ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 between online and offline modes of election campaigning.

  • Social Media, Disinformation and Democracy in Asia
    In 2019, Asia Democracy Research Network (ADRN) selected social media and disinformation as the common challenge that continue to plague and hinder democracy in Asia. Against this background, ADRN published this special report to evaluate the current state of social media and the spread of disinformation in the region by studying the phenomenon and its impact within different countries in Asia, as well as their responses. The report investigates pressing, contemporary questions such as: Who are the major disinformation disseminators? What are the primary issue areas and who are the main targets? What are the effects of disinformation? What current legal and political efforts have been placed by governments, lawmakers, media and CSOs to combat against disinformation? What are the methods of disinformation applied towards different linguistic communities? How do public figures use their personal social media accounts to engage with the public? Drawing on a rich array of resources and data, This report offers country-specific analyses, highlights areas of improvement, and suggests policy recommendations for ensuring the protection of social media and online platforms from the spread of disinformation. “Social Media, Disinformation and Democracy in Asia: Country Cases” ISBN (electronic) 979-11-6617-054-6 95340 ISBN (print) 979-11-6617-055-3 93340 This report is part of the Asia Democracy Research Network (ADRN) products for 2019-2020.

  • The Rise of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Future of Indian National Congress (INC)
    The Rise of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Future of Indian National Congress (INC) Shrouq Tariq Intern Institute of Regional Studies August 2021 1 THE RISE OF THE BHARATIYA JANATA PARTY (BJP) AND FUTURE OF INDIAN NATIONAL CONGRESS (INC) SHROUQ TARIQ Introduction The Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) emerged as a popular political party following Narendra Modi’s first term in the office. The party managed to secure another term, leaving the Congress with a seemingly irredeemable defeat. The BJP won a staggering 303 seats in the 545-member parliament, acquiring 50 per cent of the vote in its bid to establish itself as the sole national party across India. Meanwhile, the main opposition party, The Indian National Congress (INC) managed to win a meagre 52 seats. While the Modi-led BJP continues its march forward, the INC, i.e., the grand old party which led the nation through independence from the British colonial rule seems to be on its way to an inevitable decline. There are several underlying determinants behind the rise of the BJP over the years. Very precisely though, its success can be attributed to the way that the BJP leadership projects the rise of a new and better India. The INC, on the other hand, stands without proper leadership or organisational structure, leaving room for critical observations about its future. The Rise of BJP as the Leading Ruling Party of India According to a survey conducted among 2,521 respondents in India from 23 May to 23 July 2018 by the Pew Research Centre, most Indians appeared ‘satisfied’ with the economic and overall performance of the BJP government.1 65 per cent of the respondents in the survey believed that the economic situation of average Indians had considerably improved from what they used to be 20 years ago.

  • EDITORIAL Ive States Are Going for the Elections to Their Assemblies Between November and Fdecember
    EDITORIAL ive states are going for the elections to their assemblies between November and FDecember. In three states BJP has been in power out of which in 2 for 15 years. These are important states of the Hindi heartland and cover a large population of the country. Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh have been favoring BJP during the elections and gave large numbers also in Parliament to BJP. The mood of the people has shifted away from the BJP to the Congress and is giving sleepless nights to the BJP. The PM, who is an avid campaigner has reduced his forays to these states to a bare minimum and this because the BJP is aware of the mood of the people. Victory in these states is going to give a great boost to the morale of the Congress workers across the country and this will help the Congress regain the power in the General Elections in 2019. Not having anything to say for their performance either at the Centre or in the states the PM is carrying out a vilification campaign against the top leaders of the Congress since independence. It is beyond the capabilities of the PM Modi to wash away the achievements of the Congress’ rule during the last 70 years; it is on those achievements, by altering names PM is trying to build his own image, as he is bereft of any new ideas. The frustration is visible as the speeches of the PM have now sunk to the lowest of the low and only convey his hatred.
