Narendra modi

The great Indian election is going to happen for the sixteenth time this year. With almost 815 million eligible voters electing 543 members to a new lower house of Parliament, the Lok Sabha, India is going to hold the biggest election in human history.

Elections anyways have remained a matter of excitement for the masses but the year 2014 is going to witness a true democracy , for everyone of us are a little bit more excited to elect our representative as there are a few candidates who really seem to change the adverse scenarios in the country.

People have become more aware of the Indian political situation and political parties as almost all political parties are sharing a common platform with the common man and that’s through social media. It seems that they aren’t going to be fooled by the fake promises and vows that the political parties have been making to gain their trust or say votes.

Although there are a plethora of parties in the country but the main competition seem to happen between the three major parties which are Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP), Congress, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).

But right now we are going to talk about a face that seems most promising to the masses and that they have already started claiming him as their leader as well.

Yes! You are guessing right!

He is none other than Narendra Modi, a chailwala who completely changed the state of Gujarat to one of the most sparkling states of India.

Narendra Modi who is representing BJP in union election, is serving his fourth consecutive terms as Gujarat Chief Minister (CM).

Whether it is Print, news, social media or any other medium, Narendra Modi has become the most debated person across the nation. Everybody everywhere is talking about him. Even Narendra Modi has been using social media to generate awareness about his party among the masses and the most remarkable point is that he is the only politician in the country with an extensive presence on Social Media i.e. he has almost tapped all the mediums. He has his own website, with social buttons as well to increase awareness and presence.

Talking about social media, it has been playing an important role in Elections worldwide especially the sites like Facebook and Twitter.

The Criticism

Of course, there are a few people who are critical of him and don’t believe that Modi can bring any considerable change in the ongoing situation in the country whether it is political, social, and economical and so on.


However, if you look at the current situation number of people supporting NaMo is far more than that of those who are his kind of critics.
