INTRODUCTION:
Social media sites have changed the ways in which we interact. It has provided enormous opportunities not only for personal networking but also at the organizational level. Keeping in view the huge user base of social websites, they can be a potential platform for governments not only for information dissemination but also to mobilize and support citizens. Similarly citizens can connect governmental and political institutions using social media.
