About this listen
What role do political consultants play in election campaigns? How are political parties using technological tools such as data analytics, surveys and alternative media to construct effective, micro-targeted campaigns? How does the use of money impact election results? What aids in the en masse dissemination of divisive propaganda and fake news? What does it take to win an election in India today? What is the future of politics in the country?
Written by a former election campaign consultant for a major political party, How to Win an Indian Election takes listeners into the forbidden world of election war-rooms and gives them a glimpse of how strategy is formulated, what works with voters on the ground and what doesn't. Based on research, interviews, and the author's own experiences, this book is invaluable for its insight into the inner workings of politics, political parties, and what really makes for a winning election campaign.

Good content bad narration
Could you not have arranged for a better narrator? I loved the content. It seems like an honest, neutral and thoroughly informative account. Thanks for this book.

Terry D'Souza Needs to Work on Diction
Terry mispronounced multiple words incorrectly including disseminated and debilitating. He pronounced them as decimated and delibitating.

Excellent insight into the Indian electoral system
Progresses like a suspense thriller with never a dull moment. Well organized and credible content. The staccato reading could be much smoother and pleasanter.

Decent content, pretty bad narration
Mispronunciation apart, the narrator's reading of decimal digits as numbers should have been corrected while publishing this

Thank you Shivam for sharing your story!
This was a great listen and I could understand more about the internal political sphere works in our country. The influence of media in Indian Politics is something that isn't spoke widely and thanks for sharing about the fourth pillar of our democracy

Great insight in functioning of political parties
Personally I had very limited notion about inside operations of modern Indian politics and political parties. Proved to be quite an eye opener and educating for me. Narrator was good in general but as stated by others, the basic pronunciation mistakes hurt the ear.

A much needed info book for any political novice
A very candid take on the Indian Politics for those planning to choose politics as a career. Well researched. Also reflects why the much needed educated professionals will continue to shy away from entering this unfair arena
