With India ranking very high on the list of countries with the largest number of Internet users in the world, parties have recognized the power of social media and are investing significant sums into their digital campaigns. Consequently, social media advertisements have come up as a crucial means for parties to communicate with the electorate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and others provide advertisers with enough information to run <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/help\/736091520909332\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">targeted advertisements<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> reaching millions of voters. These targeted advertisements are based on factors such as location, demographics, interests, language, and behaviour, to achieve maximum impact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Methodology<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Alt News filtered data from the top 100 pages that spent the most on political advertisements in the last 90 days, as published by the Meta Ad Library on March 19 of this year. Advertisements run by leaders in their personal capacity were excluded from this data. Rahul Gandhi&#8217;s page is included in this data because the disclaimer in the advertisements run by him mentions the name of the Congress party.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Political advertisements on Facebook pages are of two types: official party pages, which share posts and propaganda according to party lines, and other pages that support a particular party through all posts and advertisements but do not have any official affiliation with the party. The expenditures on advertisements by these pages are not accounted for by the Election Commission. <strong>We have categorized such pages as proxy pages.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Analysis of this data revealed that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has spent the most on political advertisements, but the expenditure on advertisements by BJP&#8217;s proxy pages exceeded that on their official advertisements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\"

official pages of political parties, a whole bunch of controversial proxy and meme pages have emerged as key players as far as running divisive advertisements is concerned. These pages not only target opposition parties but often amplify contentious narratives. By concealing their true identities, they work on behalf of political parties and publish ads that cannot be run through official channels. These advertisements often use humour, satire, and sarcasm to mock opposition parties and their leaders, and frequently allude to communal angles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Several pages in this list attack the Opposition and bolster the BJP&#8217;s propaganda, with higher expenditures on advertisements compared to BJP&#8217;s official pages.

This also raises the question of whether parties maintain accounts for advertisements run through proxy pages. This expenditure raises questions about electoral transparency. As the general elections in India draw closer, all parties are increasingly focusing on digital advertisements, with the role of proxy pages also gaining prominence. The lack of transparency and accountability regarding expenditure and content of political advertisements on social media will continue to be a subject of scrutiny in the near future.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the 2024 Lok Sabha elections barely a few weeks away, political campaigns have reached a fever pitch both on the ground and virtually.
