Moneycontrol Express captures pre-election fervour by connecting with audience at grassroots level
Share Share ShareShare

Mumbai: Moneycontrol sent two of its correspondents across the country to capture Pre-election fervour. While one correspondent made the journey from north-south on the Himsagar Express from Trivandrum to Jammu Tawi, the west-east journey from Mumbai to Guwahati was covered by another reporter on the Guwahati Express.

This initiative was conceptualized taking into account that the very foundation of news coverage begins by ‘Reporting from Ground Zero’.  During the journey, the correspondents interacted with the travellers to gather their honest opinions, thoughts and anecdotes pertaining to the upcoming elections. The on-ground activity established a strong connect with the audience, while also bringing real opinions from the grassroots level to everyone across the nation. The first-hand view of challenges, struggles and needs of people from different towns of the country, intends to equip voters with invaluable and insightful information, which is otherwise not easily accessible.

With more than 50 conversations taking place on the 72-hour journey on the Himsagar Express, the passengers spoke at length around primary issues that included the Balakot air strikes, unemployment, Brand Modi and regional concerns. Discussions on the Guwahati Express, which spanned a 53-hour journey, involved more than 70 people sharing their views on the expectations of the youth and first-time voters, effect of demonetization and GST on small and medium businesses as well as Balakot air strikes.

Commenting on the pre-election activity, Gautam Shelar, Moneycontrol – Business Head said, “Moneycontrol Express as an on-ground activity for pre-election coverage was all about establishing a stronger connect with our audience across regions. At the same time, it was also to highlight and bring forward the opinions of the public directly; to give the audience a better grip on the national sentiment close to the elections. The engaging activity was consciously structured to deliver a comprehensive experience for those onboard the journey, as well as our audience consuming the information.”

The two intriguing journeys have been captured in a compelling video which will be available on moneycontrol.com.
