Narendra Modi's campaign is an object lesson in using extraordinary organization to bypass the mainstream media. Ten websites, a YouTube channel, showing rallies live on online media (YouTube and YuvaiTV), efforts by special team to recruit volunteers at rallies, all show a planned organization and initiative. The campaign also aims at recruiting 5000 web volunteers for each urban parliamentary constituency. Journalists are not the main vehicle to reach the masses. The conduct of mainstream media during his troubled years made Modi turn to social media and Modi used it to great advantage.
Modi addressed a large number of rallies also. In the interview to ANI, he specially mentioned that he has the energy to visit each and every district in India and establish connect with the people. He is using 3D technology to address people in large number of locations simultaneously. Critics accuse that BJP is spending lot of money for Modi rallies. But, one can look at from the other angle. There is need for the leader of the party to tour across the country and talk to people. Especially the opposition leader has to do it more. The incumbent prime minister is any way in contact with people on a continuous basis. His need to visit all the constituencies during the election year is less compared to the opposition leader. So we need to estimate the cost of travelling across the length and breadth of the country and treat this expenditure as a required expenditure. How it is raised or is to be raised needs to be discussed rather than criticizing Modi and BJP for doing it successfully in this election.

Modi Cyber Supporters (MCSs) are in single digit millions. But electorate of India is 770 million. Can they reach them. The MCSs are confident that they will reach a large number of through social media.
The CSMs are proud that Modi has worked his way up from being a tea boy. While Modi has the support of conservative RSS cadres earlier. Now, the new support group is the aspirational young Indian who sees hope in Modi to write the story of economic success. (Based on Reuters article published in Mint on 3.12.2013.
But an interesting new item in today's papers is that some papers in Pakistan are hoping for Modi's win and consequent improvement India- Pakistan Trade. This is a new direction of support for Modi.

Kalyan Singh did it once. Now, in 2014, will Modi’s backward caste social origin be enough to recapture the middle peasantry? Presently the only road to Raisina Hill for Modi is through the heartland. And as yet, there is nothing to prove that Modi has rekindled the neo-kshatriyahood of the OBCs.

These days effective usage of YouTube, Facebook, WhatsApp and BBM is on the rise. The younger generation from rural as well as urban areas makes use of social media where opinions about the UPA government and its leaders are available with illustrations. Similarly, the state BJP unit can assess how these mediums can be used to create opinion about the state leadership of the ruling parties, he said.

Mobile Campaign Strategy
Connect the news items and you get the strategy and tactics of Modi clearly. Mobile was used by Vajpayee and Advani election campaigns. But this Modi will use a different channel for his mobile strategy. This the mobile strategy will include the booth committee. Modi is asking for the formation of booth committees and he will ask for the mobile number of each of the booth committee members. In turn the booth committee members will be asked to provide the mobile numbers of persons they contacted.
In 2009, the electorate was 714 million and 828,804 polling stations were used in the election. Hence Modi is looking to 82,880,400 mobile numbers through his booth committee network. If one assumes there are voter for each mobile number collected, its translates to reaching 250 million voters. Approximately 420 million voters exercised their franchise in 2009. Hence reaching 250 million votes through mobile campaign will be a good reach. Definitely Congress can replicate this strategy. Mobile marketers have to come out with ideas to make their campaign unique and catchy. Here again the involvement of rank and file can make a difference. (Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_general_election,_2009 , http://www.anoopsadanandan.com/Elections.pdf )
Centralized mobile campaign - Collecting mobile numbers and sending messages from central office to all.
Decentralized mobile campaign - the booth committee members can be asked to send mobile messages.
Centralized decentralized campaign - From the central offices, messages in the name of booth committee members can be sent to the mobile numbers provided by each booth committee member. This may have better effect, as local person is involved in the message.
