Of the other options, a minuscule 3% want the us see Partap Singh Bajwa in the seat, while 11% wanted the us see Rajinder Kaur Bhattal as the Punjab CM.

Then came the wave in favour of Aam Aadmi Party – again driven by the netizens – that saw a common man Arvind Kejriwal taking charge of the National capital Delhi. Thus began the wave of the digital medium making politicians win or lose.
