  • Topical Focus of Political Campaigns and Its Impact: Findings from Politicians’ Hashtag Use During the 2019 Indian Elections
    Topical Focus of Political Campaigns and its Impact: Findings from Politicians’ Hashtag Use during the 2019 Indian Elections ANMOL PANDA, Microsoft Research India RAMARAVIND KOMMIYA MOTHILAL, Microsoft Research India MONOJIT CHOUDHURY, Microsoft Research India KALIKA BALI, Microsoft Research India JOYOJEET PAL, Microsoft Research India We studied the topical preferences of social media campaigns of India’s two main political parties by examining the tweets of 7382 politicians during the key phase of campaigning between Jan - May of 2019 in the run up to the 2019 general election. First, we compare the use of self-promotion and opponent attack, and their respective success online by categorizing 1208 most commonly used hashtags accordingly into the two categories. Second, we classify the tweets applying a qualitative typology to hashtags on the subjects of nationalism, corruption, religion and development. We find that the ruling BJP tended to promote itself over attacking the opposition whereas the main challenger INC was more likely to attack than promote itself. Moreover, while the INC gets more retweets on average, the BJP dominates Twitter’s trends by flooding the online space with large numbers of tweets. We consider the implications of our findings hold for political communication strategies in democracies across the world. CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing → Social media; Collaborative content creation; Computer supported cooperative work; Social networking sites. Additional Key Words and Phrases: Twitter; India; Politics; Hashtags; Election Campaigns; Narendra Modi; Rahul Gandhi; Political Communication; Polarization ACM Reference Format: Anmol Panda, Ramaravind Kommiya Mothilal, Monojit Choudhury, Kalika Bali, and Joyojeet Pal. 2020.

    Journal of Advanced Research in Social Sciences ISSN 2538-919X Analysing How the Shift in Discourses on Social Media Affected the Narrative Around the Indian General Election 2019 Devansh Manu1*, Radhika Krishnan1, Ponnurangam Kumaraguru2 1 International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad, India 2 Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi, India ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: The Lok Sabha Elections 2019 in the world’s largest democracy, Elections India, was the biggest electoral event on the planet. These elections Social media are key in the selection of the Prime Minister, the highest authority Discourses in the cabinet. Keeping in pace with the global trend, the Indian Social computing elections saw a very prominent use of Online Social Media by Twitter political parties to create a major discourse around the event. We focus our study on Twitter, collecting over 45 Million tweets, tracking more than 3500 hashtags and over 2500 political handles while monitoring their network interactions. In this work, we have analysed tweets from all these political handles to see how narratives were shaped and altered over time. We study these narratives formed by the party already in power and how they were supported or challenged by other parties. Spanning over 5 months, January to May 2019, we analysed the monthly changes in the rhetoric created by the leading political parties and leaders. We then discern the impact of these changes on existing narratives during the campaigning and the elections. 1. Introduction 1.1. Indian Political Framework India is the world’s largest democracy in which the President is the head of the state and the Prime minister of India is the Head of the Government.

  • 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.

  • Indian Aviation Is Having a Lesser Number of Aircraft. » 'Besides The
    1 Revue de presse du 15 au 31 mars 2019 « Indian aviation is having a lesser number of aircraft. » 'Besides the Boeing 737 MAX, you have the A320Neos which Indigo is currently grappling with because of a lack of pilots.' 'This has led to cancellation (of flights) and therefore the prices of air tickets are on the higher side this season although generally in March ticket prices are on the lower side.' After an Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 MAX crashed on March 10 killing all 157 on board, the Boeing 737 MAX has been grounded by all the nations it was in operation, including India. The Ethiopian Airlines crash was the second crash involving Boeing 737 MAX aircraft in five months. On October 30, 2018, an Indonesian Lion Air three-month-old Boeing 737 MAX 8 crashed, killing 189 crew and passengers including its Indian pilot Bhavye Suneja. The grounding of Boeing 737 MAX aircraft -- affecting SpiceJet and the beleaguered Jet Airways in India -- has led to a raft of flight cancellations, airfares heading north and major inconvenience posed to fliers. Can the crisis be resolved? With the 737 MAX fly again? What should the Indian government do to alleviate the pain for fliers? "The grounding of these Boeing aircraft will affect global aviation more than the Indian aviation industry," Sankalp Sinha, director of aviation consultant and Indian advisory, research, at Martin Consulting LLC, tells Rediff.com's Syed Firdaus Ashraf. How severe is the crisis facing Indian aviation after the DGCA decided to ground Boeing 737 MAX aircraft? In the long term, whenever a manufacturer releases a new aircraft in the market, these teething troubles are bound to happen.
