Internet giant Google on Tuesday the 25th March, 2014 launched a new
tool 'know your candidate' as part of its elections portal offering which will
give citizens access to relevant information about political candidates
contesting from their constituency and their incumbent Member of Parliament.
The tool will integrate publicly available
information, such as educational background, financial details and social media
presence, sourced from Indian organizations such as the Association for
Democratic Reforms (ADR), PRS Legislative Research and Liberty Institute India
The US-based search giant said the tool will be
updated regularly to provide information about all candidates as they get
finalised and will be made available at least a week before the voting day in
each constituency.
