The impact of social media on democracy: Discuss from the view point of Indian political leaders
Abstract
Social media is making it simpler for individuals to hold leaders responsible, discuss concerns, and organise around organizations all across the world. Therefore, it is necessary to regulate social media in a way that balances freedom of speech, the interests of minorities, law and order, and the promotion of citizen engagement in governance. Social media has become a vital tool for communication, opening up new avenues for political mobilisation and enticing users to participate in political activities. Examples of such operations include tweeting about and supporting one's political parties, updating one's status on Facebook, and posting videos on YouTube.Social media offers for more cost- and time-efficient data collecting and analysis than conventional techniques of measuring public opinion. This generation's youth have a strong interest in politics and the concepts that underpin it. As a result, Indian political parties are using social media and the internet to engage with young people for their political activities and agenda because they now know how to locate them.
