Till 2014 TO 2018, BJP’s Narendra Modi government had spent Rs 5,000 crore on its own campaign and the government’s campaign. At an average cost of Rs 1,000 crore per year, Rs 8,000 crore in 8 years and Rs 10,000 crore on completion of 10 years will be spent.
During the ten years of the Manmohan Singh-led UPA regime from 2004-2014, the central government spent a total of Rs 2,658 crore on advertising. The fact that the Modi government spends 400 per cent more is highly suggestive. Out of which 5 lakh poor families living in slums would have built houses on government land.
This is the declared cost. The hidden cost will be many times higher than that. In addition, each department spends heavily for the personal promotion of politicians.
