Netas on people track, not e-path

The Times of India
CHANDIGARH: In this age of quick information dissemination, political parties have been increasingly opting for e-campaigning, but in the city,
where the distances are not much and people easier to reach, most contenders feel there’s no substitute for people-to-people contact.
... . However, it’s BJP candidate Satya Pal Jain who is all for e-campaigning to reach his voters, perhaps given the party’s largely urban base. Jain, who has a blog, updates his entries and answers queries of his voters. According to BJP media-incharge Kehar Singh Kaundal, “Jain makes it a point to read every query of his voters on the blog everyday and to answer it,” said Kaundal.
