The number of young voters has surged to 56.86 million from 46.43m in 2018, reflecting an increase of 10.42m in around six years and placing the cohort in a position to play a crucial role in determining the outcome of general elections set to take place next month. Analysts believe the huge number of young voters, a majority of whom use social media, could not only influence the electorate using propaganda tools on online platforms, but even alter the electoral scene in several constituencies if they turn out in large numbers on election day.
