MEDIAAbstract
The Indian political system which was very traditional in approach and campaigned through mass meetings with their electorate has
undergone a visible change. Political parties have realised the power of the New Media to reach out to a wider audience. The
recent General Elections changed the tide in favour of technology and progress when 800 million voters sent back the ruling
government which had held sway for 10 years to the opposition benches. This paper analyses the role of New Media in Political
Communication.
