An incumbent national leadership that must win at all costs or face political humiliation and oblivion. A national party that must reclaim its fading glory or be banished for another 5 years in the political wilderness. Regional satraps whose soaring ambitions see themselves as being more than just kingmakers. The world’s largest electorate population of more than 900 million, riven by caste and communal considerations. Add to this incendiary mix fake news and you have the making of a brutal, no-holds-barred, and potentially violent Elections 2019. The discussion will focus on finding the most appropriate solutions—technological, regulatory, and informed citizenry—to combat the bane of fake news or at the least minimize its impact on the country’s general elections
