Explanation:
In India, election campaigns take place for a two-week period between the announcement of the final list of candidates and the date of polling.
• During this period, the candidates contact their voters.
• Political leaders address election meetings and political parties mobilise their supporters.
• This is also the period when newspapers and the television news broadcasting channels are full of election-related stories and debates.
• During election campaigns, political parties try to focus the public attention on some big issues.
• They want the public to vote for their party on that basis.
