Propaganda has long been used as a powerful tool in politics. One example dat stands out is the Nazi regime under Hitler.They knew how to effectively convey their message through symbols,gestures,;& posters plastered across walls, both in their own territory and conquered areas.
They utilized slogans & visual imagery to present their ideas to the masses.These posters, with Nazi slogans displayed, aimed to promote production internally and evoke a sense of patriotism in the conquered territories, emphasizing the importance of fighting for their beliefs.
This method of propaganda isn't exclusive to the Nazis. In India, we can find similar techniques employed by various political parties. Take, for instance, slogans like "Congress ka haath aapke saath," "Garibi Hatao," or "Jai Jawan Jai Kisan" from the past.
The conversion of banks and industries from private to government control was accompanied by campaigns like the Green Revolution and White Revolution, aiming to increase production and address poverty.
Simultaneously, the need to maintain a sense of external threat led to slogans like "Jai Jawan" alongside "Jai Kisan.
