Elon Musk's DOGE cuts $21 million funding for voter turnout in India

_{//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. -million-funding-for-voter-turnout-in-india.html}
^{Published in Politics and Government on Sunday, February 16th 2025 at 5:20 GMT by MSN}

The United States cancelled millions of dollars in funding for multiple countries, including India and Bangladesh, as President Donald Trump's new administration implements budget cuts.

Elon Musk's social media platform, X (formerly known as Twitter), has cut funding for a voter turnout campaign in India, which was initially set at $21 million. This decision has sparked discussions on the influence of tech moguls in electoral politics and the role of social media in democratic processes. The campaign aimed to boost voter participation in the world's largest democracy, but with the funding now withdrawn, there are concerns about the impact on voter engagement and the broader implications for political campaigns relying on digital platforms. This move by Musk, who has been known for his controversial decisions regarding X, underscores the complex relationship between technology companies and political activities.
