Communications Specialist

About Us:

We are India's leading political consulting organization, dedicated to providing high-quality professional support for political campaigns. We strongly believe that the nation will best benefit from an enlightened political leadership in the form of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and are proud to have previously contributed in a similar capacity in the momentous election campaigns of 2014, 2019, and 2024, as well as various state elections.

Our work includes envisioning and executing innovative electioneering campaigns, facilitating capacity building of grassroots cadre, and shaping governance. We add professional aspects to the strengths of the scores of grassroots workers supporting the Prime Minister and ensure optimal electoral results not as an end in itself, but to add to the Prime Minister's vision for a developed India. Our work leverages on-ground activities, data analytics, research, and new-age media as force multipliers for the Prime Minister's messages and actions.

We comprise a diverse group of dedicated individuals—including former management consultants, lawyers, engineers, political theorists, public policy professionals, and experts from other varied sectors, all hailing from premier institutes and corporates—with the unified objective of meaningfully contributing to the nation's polity.
