Political parties have often tried to find unique ways of reaching out to public especially during Election Campaigns. Be it the pad yatra(by foot), rath yatra (by chariot) or a helicopter yatra!
The Process: How Parties Hire Aircraft during Elections
Step 1: Each Party has at least 3 agents or middlemen who liaise between them and the aviation service provider.
Step 2: Middlemen and agents are relied upon because the political parties rely on their expert knowledge and their network. These agents give the operators the comfort of receiving genuine and timely payments.
Step 3: The middlemen and agents take commissions from the political parties of about 5% to 10%.
Step 4: Before the elections start, the parties give a list of their requirements such as the estimates of the number of rallies and locations they will be visiting to the agents.
Step 5: The agents approach the operators with the demands of the political parties.
Step 6: After all the discussion about the needs and the pricing is done, a deal is sealed between the agents of the parties and the aircraft operators.
Reasons why Helicopters and Aircrafts are a Great Choice for Election Campaigns
The main reason why helicopters and aircrafts are a great choice for election campaign is to meet maximum number of voters in a short period of time for different constituencies. Many places in India, especially in the Northeast side are difficult to reach due to poor roadway and railway network, which makes the aircrafts the one and only means of quick transportation. The case of travelling through an aircraft or a helicopter also becomes very strong when the alternative is a highly chaotic airports that are flooded with people and the slow path of roads or trains beyond. If a politician had to visit a place like Jaisalmer in Rajasthan to campaign for votes, he would have to first land in Jaipur by a commercial flight and then reach the destination by road. This would result in wasting 2 to 3 precious days of a packed election itinerary to only one place. In 2014, G. R. Gopinath, the promoter of Deccan Charters stated that, “Even politicians who hit the campaign trail two months ago in copters will be able to cover only about 200 constituencies (out of 543) by the end of elections.”
