What's the story

As the Modi government is set to mark its third anniversary in power on May 26, BJP has planned to hold 'Modi fest' and mass outreach programs targeting voters, to mark the occasion in over 120 cities.

The fest will highlight how "Modi brought India out of a state of despair" and also the government's key achievements including demonetization and the Army's surgical strikes.

Context

What context is this being done in?

The Modi government has demonstrated remarkable political decisiveness with pushing policies including demonetization. Under Modi, India's voices have further started to get heard loud and clear at international forums.

Despite its achievements, segments of population have accused the NDA government of attempts to curb freedom of expression and saffronization of the Indian society.

The celebrations would further commence, BJP campaign for 2019 general elections.

Analysis

Can BJP media strategy bring it home in 2019?

BJP's concerted focus dissemination and outreach can be seen in view of preparations for 2019 general elections. The Party clearly sees it as an opportune moment to do this in wake of its glorious performance in the recent state assembly polls.

However, efforts to stifle negative narratives on issues including demonetization, is eerily similar to its previous "India shining" campaign and could backfire.
